February 2, 2026 – AIBC Eurasia opens the year by returning to Dubai for its sixth edition. The summit will take place at the Dubai Festival City – Festival Arena from 9 to 11 February, featuring a two-day conference and exhibition focused on emerging technologies. Designed for both first-time attendees and returning delegates, the event offers a comprehensive programme intended to support productive participation throughout the summit.
Bringing together senior decision-makers, investors, and innovators, AIBC Eurasia operates at scale, connecting leaders with fast-growing markets across Europe, Central Asia, and the Middle East.
Exhibition and networking
The exhibition floor is designed to facilitate meaningful engagement and outcomes. In addition to exhibitor stands, the space includes a central stage for expert-led discussions, executive lounges for private meetings, dedicated networking zones, and a curated food court to support informal discussions throughout the day. Evening programmes extend the networking experience through a series of private dinners, charity events, and award ceremonies.
With more than 250 exhibitors and sponsors and two conference stages, AIBC Eurasia’s curated expo floor offers extensive opportunities for engagement. Four VIP lounges provide dedicated spaces for meetings, networking, or informal discussions in a more private setting.
