Robo.ai Inc. (NASDAQ: AIIO) announced the appointment of Dr. Jasem Ibrahim Mansour Al-Mansory as chief executive officer of its proposed subsidiary Alif Holding, an Abu Dhabi‑headquartered intelligent industrial technology group. The appointment, made alongside the previously announced chairmanship of H.E. Dr. Ahmed Naser Al‑Raisi (former INTERPOL president), completes the core leadership of the new venture.

Alif Holding will operate two integrated platforms—intelligent software and intelligent equipment—and is planned to develop, integrate and manufacture AI systems for a range of UAE sectors, including energy, oil and gas, ports, public safety, utilities, mining, transportation, smart cities and critical infrastructure. Dr. Al‑Mansory, a retired senior UAE Ministry of Interior official with a PhD in human resource management, will direct day‑to‑day operations and build a management team rooted in the United Arab Emirates.

The group emphasizes local senior management, national talent development and domestic industrial capability as it seeks to establish a foothold in the region’s emerging AI industry.
