Dubai Future Week 2026
📍 Emirates Towers & Museum of the Future, Dubai, UAE
📅 18–21 November 2026
Dubai Future Week is a new four-day gathering exploring the transformations shaping human life and what they mean for the people living through them. Held under the patronage of HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum and organised as an initiative of the Dubai Future Foundation, the event takes place across Emirates Towers and the Museum of the Future.
Under the theme “For the Human of the Future”, the 2026 edition puts people rather than technology at the centre of the conversation. As AI, synthetic biology, robotics, quantum technologies and new energy systems accelerate change, the programme asks what these developments mean for how we live, learn, work, trust, age, connect and imagine tomorrow.
Five Tracks
The programme is organised around five human questions:
The Future of Living – How we'll live: homes, cities and the world we're building
The Future of Intelligence – How we'll think: intelligence, learning and knowledge
The Future of Discovery – How we'll innovate: machines, discovery and human ingenuity
The Future of Wellbeing – How we'll feel: health, wellbeing and longevity
The Future of Markets – How we'll do business: money, markets and economic opportunity
Dubai Future Week is positioned as an experiential gathering rather than simply a conference, creating a platform for conversations about how rapid technological and societal transformation will affect everyday human life. Registration is currently open, alongside opportunities to apply as a speaker or partner.
