"Taqadum" in Arabic means progress, advancement or development.

Origins and Purpose

Taqadum was created by local and international partners with long experience in the medical field. Several members of this group have been active for more than twenty‑seven years through Prodie Santé and other organisations, developing and managing healthcare initiatives across different countries and disciplines. The platform brings together this accumulated knowledge to support promising projects, strengthen services, and help new discoveries reach patients and global markets faster.

Its purpose is clear: identify solutions that can advance healthcare, guide them through complex development stages, and support their implementation in ways that benefit society.

Vision

The UAE offers conditions that encourage long-term progress. Its leadership has remained consistent over the years, allowing the country to pursue strategic goals without interruption. This continuity has created an environment where long-term initiatives can grow steadily.

The UAE avoids the instability often seen in systems with frequent political changes. Policies are applied with coherence, and projects are not disrupted by shifting mandates. This stability has supported strong economic and social development.

The country’s approach — centred on sustainability, innovation, and responsible development — has positioned it as a model for others. These priorities are reflected in national strategies, including "The UAE’s 10 Principles for the Next 50 Years," which highlight commitments to a greener future, scientific progress, healthcare improvement, and human solidarity.

The UAE is also aware of the need to diversify its economy beyond oil and gas. This shift began decades ago and continues to shape opportunities across sectors, including healthcare and advanced technologies.

Innovation is further supported by strong logistics infrastructure, a well-developed financial system, and the country’s position between Europe, Asia, and Africa. These factors make the UAE a natural hub for international collaboration and access to fast-growing markets.

For these reasons, Taqadum chose Abu Dhabi as its headquarters — a place where long-term ambition and concrete results can meet.
