Ankabut, the UAE’s advanced technology provider for the education and research community, has entered into a strategic partnership with WeVideo, a global cloud-based video learning platform, in a move aimed at strengthening digital learning innovation across the UAE and the wider GCC. The collaboration reflects a growing emphasis on creative, technology-enabled education models that support national goals around innovation, skills development and the transition to a knowledge-based economy.
Under the agreement, Ankabut will integrate WeVideo into its expanding portfolio of education technology solutions, giving schools, universities and workforce development organisations access to intuitive video creation and digital storytelling tools. The platform enables educators and learners to create interactive, media-rich content that can enhance classroom engagement and foster creativity, collaboration and critical thinking. By embedding such tools within institutional learning environments, the partnership seeks to make digital content creation a more integral part of everyday teaching and learning.
Ankabut said the collaboration is closely aligned with the UAE’s long-term education and digital transformation strategies, including the National Strategy for Higher Education 2030. These frameworks place strong emphasis on innovation, digital excellence and the development of future-ready skills among students and professionals. Through the WeVideo integration, Ankabut aims to support these priorities by enabling educators to adopt more engaging, learner-centred approaches that resonate with digitally native students.
A senior executive at Ankabut said the partnership represents a natural extension of the organisation’s mission to empower the education and research ecosystem with advanced digital capabilities. He said that video-based learning and creative digital tools are becoming essential components of modern education, not only for academic instruction but also for skills such as communication, problem-solving and digital literacy. By working with WeVideo, Ankabut hopes to lower barriers to adoption and help institutions scale innovative teaching practices more effectively.

The partnership leverages Ankabut’s deep regional network, infrastructure expertise and long-standing relationships with education stakeholders, combined with WeVideo’s experience in cloud-based video learning technologies.
From WeVideo’s perspective, the collaboration offers an opportunity to deepen its presence in a region that is investing heavily in education reform and digital transformation.

By enabling educators and learners to tell stories, demonstrate understanding and collaborate through video, the partnership seeks to reinforce the GCC’s position as a leader in technology-driven education while contributing to the development of digitally skilled, creative and adaptable future workforces.
