Plans for a ‘Museum of the Future’ were revealed by His Highness Sheikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, on Wednesday.
The $136 million is set to open in 2017 in the Emirates Towers area near Sheikh Zayed Road in Dubai. The curving, oblong — and of course futuristic-looking — building will feature poetry written by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum. It will provide a permanent home for the world’s greatest innovations, with new exhibits every six months to keep pace with the changing technology.
The museum is the first of its kind and represents a leading example of entrepreneurial governments embracing change and creating futuristic visions for a better world.
