After careful consideration, we have decided to postpone the DevGAMM Dubai conference to 2027.
Amid ongoing regional developments, authorities across the UAE continue to closely monitor developments and take all necessary measures to ensure the continued safety and wellbeing of the citizens, residents and visitors as their highest priority.
The situation in Dubai is stable, with public services continuing to operate, building on the city’s strong and proven track record of managing periods of global disruption with agility while maintaining world-class service standards.
Emirates and flydubai have resumed a limited number of services, with ongoing schedule adjustments. With this in mind, and to ensure all speakers, partners, and attendees can enjoy the high-quality and accessible experience they expect, we have made the decision to move the event to next year.
We are already working on new conference dates and will share updates as soon as possible.
Thank you for the many kind words of support, and special thanks to our partners who have committed to joining us for the 2027 edition.
We have already contacted everyone who purchased tickets and hope to welcome you in Dubai next year, as well as at our other events planned for 2026 in Portugal, Poland, and Serbia.
For any questions regarding the postponement, please contact us at [email protected].
