Recognized as the UAE’s premier platform for creative entrepreneurship, the forum gathers entrepreneurs, cultural leaders, artists, designers, chefs, and investors to discuss opportunities within the creative economy. It aims to support the growth of creative industries while reinforcing Dubai’s role as a global cultural hub.
Aligned with the initiative ‘The Emirates: The Startup Capital of the World,’ the forum will include keynote speeches, panel discussions, workshops, and performances.

The program is designed to equip participants with practical skills and connections to advance their ventures.
Open to entrepreneurs, startups, investors, and professionals in the cultural and creative sectors, the forum encourages wide participation.
As part of the event, the Al Quoz Creative Entrepreneurship Competition received over 120 submissions. Seven finalists will present their ideas to a panel of experts, competing for a total prize pool of AED 160,000.
