Robo.ai Inc. announced the appointment of Dr. Jasem Ibrahim Mansour Al-Mansory as Chief Executive Officer of its proposed subsidiary, Alif Holding. The leadership appointment follows the earlier announcement of H.E. Dr. Ahmed Naser Al-Raisi as Chairman, completing the company's governance structure and executive management team.
Operating under the vision of "Building Intelligent Industries," Alif Holding is expected to establish two integrated platforms focused on intelligent software and intelligent equipment. Upon establishment, the group intends to develop, integrate, and manufacture AI systems in the UAE for industries such as energy, oil and gas, ports, transportation, utilities, mining, public safety, smart cities, and critical infrastructure.
As Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Al-Mansory will oversee Alif Holding's daily operations, execution strategy, and organizational management. The company stated that its governance model places the CEO under the supervision of the Board of Directors, led by Chairman H.E. Dr. Ahmed Naser Al-Raisi, who will oversee strategic direction, security, compliance, and governance.
The organization also emphasized its commitment to building a locally led management structure, with both the Chairman and CEO being senior UAE nationals. This approach is intended to strengthen domestic industrial capabilities while supporting the development of national talent within the country's growing AI sector.
Dr. Al-Mansory brings more than 30 years of experience from the UAE Ministry of Interior, where he retired as a Brigadier. His previous leadership positions included Deputy Inspector General, Acting Director General, Director of the Inspection Department in the Office of the General Inspector, and Head of Administrative and Financial Affairs.
His academic background includes a PhD in Human Resource Management from the University of Southampton, a Master's in Police Sciences, a Bachelor's in Business Administration from Ajman University, and professional qualifications in digital transformation and artificial intelligence.
"My immediate priorities are to build a management team rooted in the UAE, to establish sound operating and governance systems, and to translate the Group's technology and manufacturing capabilities into deliverable outcomes — based in the UAE, serving the GCC and reaching global markets," said Dr. Al-Mansory.
"Building the Group calls for leadership that combines sound governance with the ability to execute," said H.E. Dr. Ahmed Naser Al-Raisi, Chairman of Alif Holding. "I look forward to working with Dr. Al-Mansory and the management team."
The formation of Alif Holding reflects Robo.ai's broader strategy to establish an AI-powered industrial technology ecosystem in the UAE. By combining intelligent software, AI-powered equipment, and local manufacturing capabilities, the proposed group aims to support digital transformation across critical industries while positioning the UAE as a regional hub for AI innovation and industrial technology.
