ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates — Pixonal and Ricardo have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) establishing a strategic collaboration to improve intelligence for environmental, transport, energy, and climate-related decision-making across the Middle East.
Under the MOU, Pixonal and Ricardo will explore how Pixonal’s decision intelligence platform, Llumen, can be embedded within Ricardo’s research, advisory, and technical engagements, while enabling Pixonal to leverage Ricardo’s scientific and domain expertise to strengthen advanced analytics, modeling, and environmental intelligence solutions.
Pixonal’s Llumen is an operating system for critical decisions, designed to govern how data, analytics, models, and AI are assembled, explored, and consumed at the moment decisions are made. Llumen enables organizations to preserve meaning, continuity, and trust as intelligence moves from analysis into leadership discussion, coordination, and action.
Through this collaboration, Llumen will draw on Ricardo, a world-leading an environmental, energy and engineering consultancy, subject matter expertise to inform how intelligence is structured, governed, and operationalized within the platform to support decision intelligence for governments and enterprises across the Middle East.
Together, Pixonal and Ricardo aim to establish a new benchmark for how advanced environmental analytics and scientific insight are delivered to decision-makers, translating complex modeling and research into shared, actionable decision environments that support clarity under pressure.
“This collaboration reflects a shared commitment to elevating how intelligence supports real decisions,” said Mohamed Said, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer at Pixonal. “Ricardo’s scientific depth and long-standing experience across environmental and infrastructure challenges bring exceptional rigor to how Llumen can be configured, governed, and deployed as an operating system for critical decisions.”
Commenting on the MOU, Akim Adamson, Ricardo Middle East Director, said “Pixonal’s approach introduces a new operating layer for decision-making. Llumen enables advanced analytics and environmental intelligence to reach leadership teams in a form that supports understanding, alignment, and confident action across complex initiatives.”
Together, Pixonal and Ricardo are aligning scientific depth and decision technology to shape a new standard for leadership-level intelligence across complex environments.
