To support these efforts, Hub71 welcomed Princeville Capital as a Capital Anchor Partner in the Hub71+ ClimateTech ecosystem. This collaboration marks a significant milestone, as Princeville Capital will not only commit financial resources but also establish a physical presence in Abu Dhabi, bringing its expertise and dedicated team to the heart of Abu Dhabi.
