FortyGuard was proud to exhibit at Step 2025, Dubai’s largest and most influential tech festival, where we had the opportunity to engage with a dynamic ecosystem of investors, potential partners, and industry stakeholders. As cities worldwide face the growing challenge of urban heat, Step provided a valuable platform for showcasing how AI-powered temperature intelligence is redefining urban cooling and helping shape the future of climate resilience.

The conference brought together more than 400 global startups, hundreds of investors, and over 8,000 attendees over two days, fostering an environment where groundbreaking ideas and emerging technologies converge. At FortyGuard, our mission is to transform cities into cooler, smarter, and more sustainable environments by providing real-time, high-resolution temperature insights. Step gave us the opportunity to connect with key decision-makers who share our vision of leveraging technology to drive meaningful climate solutions.

For FortyGuard, Step is more than just a conference—it is a launchpad for innovation and collaboration. As we work to address the impact of rising temperatures in urban areas, it is critical to connect with investors, city planners, technology leaders, and sustainability advocates who recognize the need for climate-adaptive infrastructure. The conversations we had at Step reinforced the growing demand for data-driven climate solutions, and we were able to demonstrate how FortyGuard’s Temperature Dashboard™ is providing actionable intelligence to governments, businesses, and urban developers.

As one of the premier startup conferences in the region, Step fosters an ecosystem where emerging technologies meet real-world applications. The relationships built here will help drive the next phase of FortyGuard’s growth, enabling us to scale our impact and expand our network of collaborators.

We extend our gratitude to the organizers of Step Dubai 2025 for creating an environment that brings together technology, investment, and innovation at the highest level. As we continue to push the boundaries of what is possible in urban climate resilience, the insights, partnerships, and momentum from Step will play a crucial role in our journey.
