Global technology giant Oracle is set to bring its annual flagship event, the CloudWorld Tour, back to Dubai for the second consecutive year. The event, slated for January 23, 2024, at the Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC), will spotlight the latest cloud innovations and artificial intelligence (AI) solutions from the company.
Nick Redshaw, Senior Vice President – Technology Cloud, Middle East and Africa, and UAE Country Leader, emphasised the UAE’s proactive stance in adopting AI and other advanced digital technologies. With a target to double the digital economy’s contribution to the non-oil GDP from 11.7 percent to over 20 percent in the next decade, the UAE has positioned itself as a key player in the global tech landscape.
“Oracle is fully committed to helping the UAE achieve this national objective,” stated Redshaw. “With our cloud regions in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, unique AI-focused innovation hubs, and the latest integrated cloud solutions, we are moving at pace to accelerate our support to the UAE. The CloudWorld Tour is a definitive event in the tech industry, setting the tone for future enterprise technology trends. Hosting this event in the UAE aligns with our ongoing efforts to boost the country’s AI economy.”
Dubai stands among only eight global cities chosen to host the Oracle CloudWorld Tour in 2024. The event is expected to showcase groundbreaking cloud innovation, with a specific emphasis on AI solutions. Attendees can anticipate insights from top technology experts, success stories from Oracle’s customers in the UAE and the wider Middle East, and a wealth of learning opportunities.
The CloudWorld Tour encompasses various aspects of technology, covering cloud infrastructure, databases, applications, and more. It serves as a unique platform for networking with peers and partners, learning from experts and customers, and staying updated on the latest developments in the tech industry.
Oracle sees this event as not only a testament to its commitment to supporting the UAE’s AI economy but also as a significant contribution to shaping the future of enterprise technology.
