Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD)

The OECD provides a forum in which governments can work together to share experiences and seek solutions to common problems. We work with governments to understand what drives economic, social and environmental change. We measure productivity and global flows of trade and investment. We analyse and compare data to predict future trends. We set international standards on a wide range of things, from agriculture and tax to the safety of chemicals.
We look, too, at issues that directly affect the lives of ordinary people, like how much they pay in taxes and social security, and how much leisure time they can take. We compare how different countries' school systems are readying their young people for modern life, and how different countries' pension systems will look after their citizens in old age.
Drawing on facts and real-life experience, we recommend policies designed to make the lives of ordinary people better. We work with business, through the Business and Industry Advisory Committee to the OECD, and with labour, through the Trade Union Advisory Committee. We have active contacts as well with other civil society organisations. The common thread of our work is a shared commitment to market economies backed by democratic institutions and focused on the wellbeing of all citizens.

Advanced Technology Investment Company (ATIC)

Established in 2008, the Advanced Technology Investment Company (ATIC) is a specialist investment company mandated to focus primarily on the global advanced technology sector. ATIC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mubadala Development Company.
Established and owned by the Government of Abu Dhabi, Mubadala is a catalyst for the Emirate’s economic diversification, managing long-term, capital-intensive investments that deliver strong financial returns and tangible social benefits to the region.
ATIC has a clear and single purpose:
To deliver superior financial returns to our shareholder by responsibly and sustainably investing in, and building, leading technology companies around the world.
Our approach is fundamentally different to that of other technology-focused investment organizations. Recognizing that real change takes time, and that value creation is more about sustainable wealth generation than short-term profit creation, we are committed to a long-term investment horizon. This patient capital approach ensures that our investments are strategic and transformational rather than tactical and opportunistic and, as a result, can deliver superior returns to both our portfolio companies and our shareholder.
Initially focused on the semiconductor industry, ATIC's potential scope is global and will focus on leading technology companies and centres in Europe, the U.S. and Asia.
