Abu dhabi: The 18th edition of the World Future Energy Summit recorded a notable 30 percent increase in visitor numbers compared to last year, according to preliminary indicators. Leen AlSebai, General Manager of RX Middle East and Head of the World Future Energy Summit, shared these insights on the sidelines of the final day of the event, highlighting the strong visitor momentum throughout its three-day duration.
According to Emirates News Agency, AlSebai stated, “Today, we conclude the 18th edition of the World Future Energy Summit, which over three days delivered a major trade exhibition spanning 35,000 square metres, hosted seven specialised conferences, and saw broad participation from international and local exhibitors, tens of thousands of visitors, and more than 350 global speakers.” This year’s summit placed a significant focus on artificial intelligence as a key factor in advancing modern energy infrastructure.
AlSebai detailed that the emphasis on artificial intelligence was evident through the launch of the Artificial Intelligence and Technology Hub, which covered an area of 3,600 square metres. This hub featured three main zones: the Green House pavilion with over 70 start-ups showcasing their innovations, the Fuse AI pavilion dedicated to artificial intelligence companies, and the Green Hydrogen pavilion highlighting the latest green hydrogen technologies.
In addition to these features, new elements were introduced in this year’s edition, including a nuclear energy pavilion and a cybersecurity pavilion. An innovative cinematic experience was also presented, depicting stories of global environmental challenges and exploring ways to address them.
