On 17 April, the grand opening celebration welcomed distinguished guests and cultural leaders, featuring a specially composed performance by renowned Italian pianist and composer Ludovico Einaudi. Set against the venue’s unique architecture, the score was paired with a dramatic display of 6,000 synchronised drones and pyrotechnics, curated to celebrate the new milestone for Saadiyat Cultural District, and reflect the connection between art, technology and imagination.

H.E. Mohamed Khalifa Al Mubarak, Chairman of the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi, said: “teamLab Phenomena Abu Dhabi is a groundbreaking cultural landmark that redefines immersive art experiences on a global scale. It embodies a bold vision that pushes the boundaries of creativity, technology, and human perception, offering visitors an experience unlike any other. Together with our partner, teamLab, we take great pride in bringing this pioneering concept to life, reinforcing our commitment to shaping world-class experiences that inspire, engage, and contribute to Abu Dhabi’s cultural legacy. Saadiyat Cultural District is a cultural landmark of global significance, bringing together the world’s greatest minds and institutions to foster dialogue, inspire creativity, and shape a more connected future.”

Following the opening ceremony, guests were immersed within newly unveiled teamLab Phenomena Abu Dhabi exhibits, meandering between its inspiring artistic installations, interacting with the dynamic artworks, and experiencing the connection between art, technology and natural phenomena.

Toshiyuki Inoko, Founder of teamLab, said: “The artworks in teamLab Phenomena do not exist independently but are created by the environment which produces the various phenomena that creates the artworks. Objects such as stones and man-made creations maintain a stable structure independently. A stone, for instance, will remain unchanged even if placed in a sealed box, isolated from the outside world. In contrast, a vortex in the ocean will vanish in an instant if removed from its environment. Unlike a stone, a vortex does not sustain itself; it evolves with the surrounding currents, formed by water flowing continuously from the outside to the inside and from the inside to the outside of the vortex, changing along with the flow. Moreover, the boundaries of its existence are ambiguous, and there is no material distinction between the vortex and its surroundings.

“The unique environment produces the phenomena, and the environment maintains the existence of the structure. Let us call that existence Environmental Phenomena. The artwork is inseparable from the environment and changes along with the environment. This concept transcends the various conventional notions of existence by physical forms. Even if people immerse themselves physically into the artwork, the artwork will remain intact, capable of naturally restoring itself even if disrupted. However, when the environment is not sustained, the artwork will disappear. The boundaries of the artwork are ambiguous and continuous with the environment. Perhaps, people’s consciousness will expand from the artwork itself to the environment beyond.”

Spanning 17,000 square metres, teamLab Phenomena Abu Dhabi has been developed by the internationally acclaimed art collective teamLab, in collaboration with the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi (DCT Abu Dhabi). The multi-sensory art experience reflects the emirate’s unwavering commitment to fostering creativity and cultural innovation on a global scale, and it presents massive transformative artworks that each blend art, science and technology in groundbreaking ways.

teamLab Phenomena Abu Dhabi is designed to explore and transcend the limits of every guest’s imagination. Each artwork within the unique, purpose-built venue will evolve over time through the interplay of light, sound and movement. Unlike artworks at traditional galleries, visitors will discover exhibits that are fluid, existing in a dynamic relationship with their environment. Each artwork responds to guests’ actions and natural changes in the environment, creating a living, breathing art experience, unlike any other.

Comprising two distinct Wet and Dry areas, guests will be immersed in a series of mesmerising visuals, vibrant landscapes and interactive installations that dissolve the boundaries between art and audience. Every moment offers a new philosophical experience, ensuring that each visitor experience is unique.

In the Dry area, visitors will encounter a variety of artworks that encourage interaction, responding to their movements and actions to create a unique connection between guests and the installations. As they move into the Wet area, guests will follow a dedicated walkway leading them into an exciting realm filled with fluid, hands-on experiences that further deepen their connection with the art.

teamLab Phenomena Abu Dhabi is a key addition to Saadiyat Cultural District, which upon completion will be the largest concentration of world-leading cultural and educational institutions. The District is home to an unparalleled lineup of museums and cultural landmarks, including Louvre Abu Dhabi; the upcoming Zayed National Museum, the national museum of the UAE; Guggenheim Abu Dhabi, featuring a global collection of modern and contemporary art that reflects the diversity of cultures and trends from around the world; and Natural History Museum Abu Dhabi, telling the story of life on earth and the origins of our universe.

The addition of teamLab Phenomena reinforces Abu Dhabi’s position as a global cultural epicentre, offering visitors a unique and transformative experience while showcasing its commitment to creativity, innovation and cultural collaboration on a global scale.

HUSK Launches All-in-One Ecosystem, Uniting Healthy Living and Clinical Care in a Single Platform

Published

New offering connects health plan-covered nutrition and mental health care with a personalized engagement journey — giving employers a way to measure whether wellness spend is reducing healthcare costs

WAYNE, Pa., Nov. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — In both self-funded and fully insured health plans, most employees already have access to registered dietitians and licensed therapists, yet much of that care goes unused. Today, HUSK, a preventative wellness technology company serving self-funded and fully insured employers and health insurers, announced the launch of its all-in-one wellness ecosystem, HUSK Wellness. The all-in-one ecosystem brings healthy living programs and clinical care together in a single personalized experience, with outcomes reporting employers can act on.

For three decades, HUSK has helped employers engage their workforces in wellness. In that time, it has seen the same gap again and again. Benefits are spread across separate vendors, covered care goes unused, and employers have no reliable way to connect wellness spend to outcomes. HUSK Wellness closes that gap by building each employee a personalized journey across five benefits: Challenge, Rewards, Marketplace, Nutrition and Mental Health. Each journey is shaped by employer goals and driven by employee choice.

“Employers have spent years buying wellness one vendor at a time, and the result is benefits that sit unused and no clear line to healthcare costs,” said Erin Markowski, President and CEO of HUSK. “The clinical care is already covered by the health plan, whether an employer is fully insured or self-funded. Our job is to connect it to the healthy habits people enjoy, so employees actually use it and employers can finally see whether their wellness investment is reducing healthcare spend.” — Erin Markowski, President & CEO of HUSK

The HUSK Wellness journey begins with onboarding led by Poppie, HUSK’s wellness assistant. Poppie learns each employee’s goals, interests and preferences, then builds a personalized path across all five benefits. Because everything lives in one connected ecosystem, employees spend less time searching and more time engaging. Employers can see utilization, ROI, and how participation relates to high-cost utilization such as ER visits and chronic condition spend.

“Most wellness platforms are built to nudge people into engagement. We built ours around choice,” said Samantha Chase, Head of Product at HUSK. “Employees tell Poppie what they care about, and the platform builds a journey around that. People stick with what they chose for themselves.” — Samantha Chase, Head of Product at HUSK

HUSK Wellness is available now to employers and health insurance partners. Employers can request a walkthrough at https://huskwellness.com/.

About HUSK Wellness

HUSK Wellness is a preventative wellness technology company serving employer clients and health insurers. Operating under parent company Volaris, HUSK combines engagement solutions (Rewards, Challenge, and Marketplace) with clinical care delivered by Registered Dietitians and Mental Health Therapists.

Opt-ins are stored as a permanent timestamped record, so brands stay compliant everywhere they sell and can prove exactly who they can legally reach.Consent intelligence. Dataships measures how marketing consent performs across channels, markets, and collection points and provides benchmarks, so brands understand the impact marketing consent has on their business, including audience growth, incremental revenue, and overall compliance posture.

“Since growing your audience and staying compliant go together, consent should follow the shopper into the marketing platform automatically,” said Leah Beitler, VP of Partnerships & Ecosystems, Listrak. “With Listrak’s compliance center of excellence combined with Dataships’ consent expertise, retailers grow their lists by increasing opt-ins across channels while staying aligned with regional rules.”
