As urban heat intensifies worldwide, cities face growing challenges that demand innovative solutions. At FortyGuard, we are committed to transforming cities into cooler, more sustainable spaces through cutting-edge AI-powered technology. This mission took center stage at LiveableCitiesX, part of Big 5 Global in Dubai, where our Founder & CEO, Jay Sadiq, participated in an insightful fireside chat with urban specialist Hassaan Ghazali.

During the session, Jay highlighted FortyGuard’s unique approach to urban heat management, powered by AI and machine learning. He discussed how data-driven solutions are reshaping urban planning, helping cities mitigate the urban heat island effect while boosting sustainability and public health.

A key part of FortyGuard’s journey has been our collaboration with Masdar City, a globally recognized hub for innovation in sustainability. Sebastien Miller’s leadership at Masdar City has been instrumental in redefining urban resilience through smart technologies, setting a benchmark for how cities can combat heat in scalable, effective ways.

Moderated by Hassaan Ghazali, the fireside chat spotlighted the critical role of cross-sector partnerships. Attendees gained insights into the practical applications of FortyGuard’s solutions, from data-driven heat maps to real-time temperature monitoring systems that empower urban planners and sustainability leaders.

We extend our deepest gratitude to the audience members who captured and shared this powerful session, helping amplify our message of innovation and environmental responsibility. Events like LiveableCitiesX are invaluable platforms for exchanging ideas, fostering collaboration, and inspiring action toward a more sustainable urban future.

Let’s continue pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in climate-tech and urban resilience. Together, we can build cities that are smarter, cooler, and more sustainable for generations to come.
