Paata Salia Discusses Cooperation on Innovation and Digital Governance with UAE Minister of State for Foreign Affairs
Minister of Justice Paata Salia met with the Minister of State for Foreign Affairs of the United Arab Emirates, Saeed bin Mubarak Al Hajer, to discuss cooperation in the fields of innovation and digital governance. The parties explored opportunities for further strengthening bilateral relations.
During the meeting, Paata Salia presented Georgia’s ongoing reforms. He highlighted the Ministry of Justice’s introduction of an innovative Smart Contract service, which enables Georgian citizens to conduct real estate transactions remotely from anywhere in the world. The service incorporates secure digital signatures, integrated mortgage solutions, payment processing, and electronic title registration. Plans are underway to expand the platform to include remote business registration and additional advanced digital services.
The parties also recalled the productive visit conducted last fall, as well as the memorandum signed earlier this year with PRYPCO Technologies. The memorandum provides for cooperation in implementing advanced technologies in the real estate sector, including real estate tokenization—the conversion of physical assets into digital units.
The meeting was attended by First Deputy Minister of Justice Beka Dzamashvili and Head of the Department of International Relations and Legal Cooperation Ketevan Sarajishvili.
