I’m thrilled to announce that Agora World has been selected as a Semi-Finalist in the QBE Insurance AcceliCITY Resilience Challenge under the PropTech Track! We’re honored to stand among just 7 Proptech Companies globally, and this recognition is a major milestone on our journey toward reshaping the future of urban planning and community resilience through 3D visualization and digital twin technology.







Additionally, we're excited to say we were also selected as a Semi-Finalist Resiliency Solution in the QBE Insurance AcceliCITY Resilience Challenge! We're privileged to stand among 50 Resiliency Solutions globally.

A Vision for the Future: Resiliency, Equity, and Sustainability


At Agora World, our mission has always been to create solutions that not only address today’s challenges but also set the stage for a more resilient and equitable future. The QBE AcceliCITY program gives us the perfect platform to demonstrate the profound impact of 3D visualization in areas such as:

  • Resiliency: Help cities and companies plan for and respond to natural disasters and other disruptions. With the ability to simulate real-world conditions in real time, we empower decision-makers to prepare more effectively for natural disasters or even infrastructure failures.
  • Equity: Cities are complex ecosystems where access to resources, infrastructure, and opportunities isn’t always evenly distributed. By visualizing socio-economic and other vital data as well as infrastructure in a 3D environment, Agora World’s technology enables stakeholders to better understand these disparities and craft more equitable solutions.
  • Sustainability: From optimizing energy efficiency in buildings to improving the management of natural resources, our platform brings data to life, helping communities make smarter, more sustainable choices that benefit future generations.


Next Steps: Deepening Our Impact

This recognition as a semi-finalist is just the beginning. We’re eager to dive deeper into the QBE AcceliCITY program and showcase how our no-code platform empowers cities and businesses to make more informed decisions, transforming how they plan, build, and protect their communities.


As we move forward in the competition, we’re excited to explore new opportunities for collaboration with city leaders, insurance companies, and organizations committed to improving urban resilience. We believe that 3D technology and digital twins will play an essential role in transforming how cities operate, making them safer, smarter, and more adaptive to the challenges of tomorrow.


A Team Effort: Thank You

This achievement wouldn’t have been possible without the tireless efforts of our team, the support of our partners, and the guidance of our incredible advisors. Your belief in Agora World’s vision has propelled us to this exciting point, and together, we’ll continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible in urban planning and resilient communities.


We’re looking forward to the next phase of this challenge and can’t wait to share more updates as we continue this journey.


Stay tuned—the best is yet to come!
