A Global Conference Series, Shaped for Dubai

WORKTECH26 Dubai is part of WORKTECH, the world’s leading conference series dedicated to exploring the future of work, the workplace, and workplace intelligence through the lens of people, place, and technology.

In Dubai, WORKTECH brings its global perspective to one of the world’s fastest-evolving workplace markets. As organisations across the UAE and wider Middle East navigate return-to-office mandates, rapid economic growth, and increasing competition for high-quality space, the event connects senior professionals who are reshaping portfolios, policies, and workplace experiences for the next phase of growth.

Now in its third decade, WORKTECH has become a trusted global thought-leadership platform, convening senior leaders and decision-makers from across industries to share insight, challenge assumptions, and explore what’s next for work and the workplace.

WORKTECH in Dubai

WORKTECH26 Dubai reflects the ambition, pace, and global connectivity of the region’s corporate real estate and workplace landscape.

The conference brings together leaders from corporate real estate, workplace strategy, HR, technology, facilities, architecture, and design to examine how organisations are responding to renewed office demand, expanding workforces, and heightened expectations around experience, performance, and sustainability.

Through real-world case studies, panels, and expert discussion, the programme explores how data, AI, and smart-building technologies are transforming decision-making; how portfolios are being recalibrated for growth rather than contraction; and how organisations can align people, place, and technology in a competitive, experience-driven market.

With a strong focus on cross-functional collaboration and regional insight, WORKTECH26 Dubai provides a critical forum for leaders shaping the future of work across the Middle East and beyond.
