About the Event

GITEX Global 2026 runs December 7 to 11 at the Dubai Exhibition Centre inside Expo City Dubai. This is the event's first year away from the Dubai World Trade Centre, its home for 45 years, and it now runs in its 46th edition. The move reunites GITEX Global with Expand North Star, its startup and investor arm, under one roof.

Audience and Attendees

The schedule opens with the GITEX Scale Summit on December 7, a day of high-level strategic dialogue for global leaders on AI economies, policy and investment trends. The main exhibition then runs from December 8 to 11, drawing exhibitor stands, startup zones and public sessions to the show floor.

Programme Structure

The event pairs the invite-focused Scale Summit day with four days of exhibition, conferences and networking across the new venue's North and South Halls.

Main Topics

The show covers artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, cloud computing, quantum computing, digital health and Web3, alongside fintech and broader digital transformation themes.
