Dubai will welcome 400 global experts to the Museum of the Future next week to discuss, research and anticipate groundbreaking transformations across crucial sectors.

The main themes are: Future of the World, What Does it Mean to be Human in the Future, Hedging Our Bets, and Mitigating Existential Risk Through Foresight Mitigating.
It aims to boost partnerships between the public and private sectors to build a better future by deploying artificial intelligence, blockchain, big data and quantum computing to drive economic growth and sustainable development.
