As of this week, Dubai World Trade Centre opens its doors to the Gulf Information and Technology Exhibition (GITEX). Following the launch of the exciting annual event, guests will find extensive access to keynote speakers, interactive debates, fascinating inventions, networking opportunities and much more over the span of the 5-day event. Visitors are offered three types of entry passes starting from AED 220 to get access to the exhibition, AED 350 for the Delegate Pass which gives visitors access to the exhibition, conferences and workshops and lastly the ‘Workshop Pass’ which gives visitors access to the Exhibition and Workshops for a price of AED 500.

This year GITEX Global is especially focused on technology and event-focused conferences for the entire region. One of the key stand-out features of this event among many – is the 3000+ tech enterprises who plan to make a first-time market entry on this exhibit. The event is also an impeccable opportunity for startups in the tech industry, as it is reported to feature nearly 400 investors in the market. With 700 start-ups set to feature this event, this is a pretty great head start into the tech world.

The event has previously had 40 successful instalments attracting hundreds and thousands of annual visitors. Unlike its predecessors though, this event is purely just an exhibit – with its main aim being sparking insightful debate and conversations while maximizing the exposure to many of the region’s newest inventions.

Although the event can expect visitors from across the U.A.E, many chose to stay within close quarters. With the onset of EXPO 2020 visitors are now on a double-ended agenda in town.
