Aldar and PureHealth have entered a strategic partnership to design and deliver health longevity-focused communities that embed technology, health, and wellness into every aspect of daily life.
One of the first-of-its-kind, the collaboration combines PureHealth’s leadership in healthcare and health longevity science with Aldar’s expertise in creating integrated, human-centric master planned communities, establishing a new model for wellness-driven living environments. The partnership supports the UAE’s ambition to become a global hub for health longevity, and sustainable living, in line with national initiatives such as the National Strategy for Wellbeing 2031 and Abu Dhabi’s Longevity and Precision Medicine Declaration.
Through this agreement, Aldar and PureHealth will explore innovative ways to integrate wellness and preventive care into the fabric of communities, from the design of homes and neighbourhoods to everyday experiences that promote long-term wellbeing. By combining PureHealth’s clinical insight with Aldar’s data-driven approach to community development, the partnership aims to translate longevity science into practical, scalable solutions that enhance quality of life and support healthier, more connected communities.
Rashed AlQubaisi, Group Chief Operating Officer of PureHealth, said: “This strategic partnership with Aldar represents a significant milestone in our mission to integrate health into every aspect of daily life. Supported by PureHealth’s Pura Clinic – the region’s centre for precision health and health longevity science – we are enabling individuals to take charge of their health with advanced air quality systems and smart beds, to smart mirrors, offering real-time contactless health insights. This collaboration is a strong example of cross-sector innovation that aligns with national goals for population health and health longevity.”
Jonathan Emery, Chief Executive Officer of Aldar Development, said: “Our partnership with PureHealth reflects a shared belief that wellbeing must be built into the places we call home. At Aldar, we see wellness as a defining principle of how we plan, design, and operate our destinations. Together with PureHealth, we are creating communities that enable people to live healthier, longer, and more connected lives, while advancing Abu Dhabi’s reputation as a global benchmark for sustainable, human-centric communities.”
The partnership will also create opportunities for joint research, knowledge exchange, and outcome measurement, supporting both organisations’ broader commitment to innovation, evidence-based decision-making, and long-term community wellbeing. As the partnership evolves, Aldar and PureHealth will assess opportunities to introduce pilot initiatives across selected communities and assets, helping to inform future approaches that bring together healthcare, technology, and the built environment.
Globally, people spend up to 90 per cent of their time indoors, making the built environment a critical factor in long-term health – particularly in hot climates such as the UAE. Factors such as indoor air quality, safe water, access to daylight, and exposure to greenery are key contributors to wellbeing. By designing infrastructure with health longevity in mind, Aldar and PureHealth aim to shape environments that foster wellness and community resilience.
Through connecting healthcare with real estate, the partnership will enhance the quality of life, improve health outcomes, and create long-term community and economic value, reinforcing Abu Dhabi and the UAE’s position as a global hub for life sciences, innovation, and sustainable living.
