This week at NYU Abu Dhabi: research, innovation, and ideas shaping the future 🌍

🎬 Social scientist and filmmaker Saba Karim Khan is using documentary storytelling to explore identity, resilience, and the global influence of hip-hop through W.R.A.P. (We Really Are Pakistan) - showing how music can become a language for culture, community, and change.

⚙️ A new collaboration between NYU Abu Dhabi and Sindan UAE is turning research into real-world impact — from advanced manufacturing and R&D to giving students hands-on experience solving industry challenges beyond the classroom.

📚 100 stories, generations of lessons. Together with Tharawat Family Business Forum, NYU Abu Dhabi marks a major milestone documenting family businesses across MENASA. The project, led by Martin Klimke, traces entrepreneurial journeys while uncovering lessons in resilience, leadership, reinvention, and long-term success across generations.

Research at NYU Abu Dhabi goes beyond the lab, connecting people, industries, art, culture, and communities ✨
