Dubai is where the season widens out. The audience shifts. The conversation tilts east and south. And the sun sets early enough that we can build an entirely different schedule around it.
We open with a day on the water: a boat party and relaxed registration, so the room already knows each other before the first talk. Then two full days of conference — the longest edition of the season.
This is the most global edition: speakers and attendees arriving from India, the Gulf, East Africa, Southeast Asia, Central Europe, the UK. We're leaning into that. Fewer talks about the US market, more talks about the other five billion people.
Subject to small adjustments — a conference is a living document. The shape holds.
