Our vision is to advance science, technology, and innovation for a resilient, thriving, and sustainable future.
Our mission is to pursue scientific excellence to tackle national challenges through a prominent science, technology, and innovation model.
Driving our work is the premise that science creates knowledge, technology accelerates progress, and innovation shapes transformative solutions. During 2025–2029, we aim to build on our legacy and our strengths by continuing to support exemplary programs and projects, while also accelerating our support for emerging scientific areas that call for new research, novel uses of technology, and expanded horizons in knowledge transfers and human capacities.All of our work will be aligned with our three pillars—robust research ecosystem, viable innovation, and human ingenuity—and each pillar will complement and produce synergies with the others. We will focus on elevating research efficacy, encouraging transdisciplinary research, and informing science-based policy. We will also focus on promoting science, technology, and innovation (STI) transfers and contributing to the growth of the innovation ecosystem. And we will focus on diffusing knowledge and developing human capabilities and potential.We will pursue priority areas that address issues of importance to Kuwait, particularly in the areas of environment, energy, health, STEAM education, water and food security, and future economies, while maintaining a vigilant awareness of emerging trends and initiatives outside these areas that could bring benefit to the nation.Specialized centers of excellence have been established in Kuwait and continue to be funded as subsidiaries of the foundation, providing the country with additional ways to address national challenges through research and development.
