What organization is CYVN?
CYVN is an investment institution with a majority stake in the Abu Dhabi government of the United Arab Emirates, with a strategic focus on the intelligent transportation industry. The fund was established in 2022 with the goal of investing in global industry leaders in this field.
There are several well-known sovereign funds in the United Arab Emirates, such as Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA), Mubadala Investment Company, UAE Investment Authority (EIA), Dubai Investment Company (DIC), and RAKIA. And CYVN Holdings is the youngest among them.
CYVN Holdings' focus on advanced and intelligent transportation reflects the long-term vision of the Abu Dhabi government for the emirate.
Abu Dhabi is one of the seven emirates of the United Arab Emirates. Compared to the Emirate of Dubai, known for its tourism, finance, and trade, Abu Dhabi is a major producer of oil and gas, with over 90% of the UAE's reserves.
However, the Abu Dhabi government is seeking economic diversification and reducing dependence on hydrocarbons. The intelligent transportation sector is considered one of the key growth points for the future, and the establishment of CYVN is aimed at achieving these goals of the Abu Dhabi government.
