**GITEX GLOBAL 2026** is being completely reimagined for its 46th edition. Moving from its traditional home to the sprawling **Dubai Exhibition Centre (DEC) at Expo City**, the event is scaling up to match the frontier platform status it has earned over the last four decades.

Taking place from **December 7 to 11, 2026**, this edition marks a historic $2.7 billion expansion, transforming the world’s largest tech and startup show into a multi-dimensional "Mega-City" of innovation.

## The Core of 2026 Edition

The 2026 edition unifies the entire tech ecosystem under one massive roof, integrating several specialized industry-defining shows:

- **Expand North Star:** The world's largest startup and investor meeting ground reunites with the main expo, creating a seamless pipeline from seed funding to enterprise scaling.
- **Physical AI – Robotics Park:** A new, dedicated arena for the embodiment of AI — showcasing the latest in humanoid robotics, autonomous industrial systems, and edge computing.
- **GITEX New Energy & Move:** Focusing on the Green-Tech revolution and the future of intelligent mobility, reflecting Dubai’s push toward a net-zero digital economy.
- **AI Everything:** Continuing its reign as the global epicenter for artificial intelligence, with a specific focus in 2026 on **Agentic AI** and sovereign data clouds.

### A New Iconic Home: Why DEC?

The move to the **Dubai Exhibition Centre** at Expo City is more than just a change of address; it’s a strategic expansion. The new venue offers nearly double the previous footprint, allowing for larger-scale live demonstrations of heavy-industry tech and urban air mobility.

> "GITEX GLOBAL 2026 represents a launch into a new dimension—a show unmatched in scale, now reimagined with the energy of a city built for the future."

### The Scale Summit & Networking

The week kicks off on **December 7** with the **GITEX Scale Summit**, a curated deep dive for C-level executives and policy makers.

Beyond the 40+ halls of hardware and software, the event leverages the **"Tech-cation"** vibe of December in Dubai. With cooler weather and the world-class infrastructure of Dubai South, the event is designed for high-value dealmaking. Over **60% of attendees** are expected to be C-level decision-makers, supported by the **Dubai Chamber of Digital Economy** to facilitate cross-border trade.

Whether you're looking to witness the birth of the next AI unicorn or explore the infrastructure of the world's future megacities, GITEX GLOBAL 2026 remains a must-visit.
