Exhibition World Bahrain (EWB) is set to welcome the highly anticipated 93rd UFI Global Congress, taking place from November 2-5.
Hosted by the Bahrain Tourism and Exhibitions Authority (BTEA) for the first time in the Kingdom of Bahrain, it marks a significant milestone, reflecting the Kingdom’s growing position on the global business events map and further strengthening its reputation as a leading destination for major exhibitions and international conferences.
Sara Buhiji, CEO of BTEA and Chairperson of EWB, said that hosting the UFI Global Congress for the first time is a defining moment for Bahrain and reflects the Kingdom’s growing position within the global business events industry.
She said Bahrain looks forward to welcoming international colleagues to experience the congress alongside the Kingdom’s hospitality, strategic location, cultural heritage, and vision for the future of exhibitions and business tourism.
She added that the UFI Global Congress provides a platform for collaboration, knowledge exchange, and building international partnerships.
She encouraged exhibition professionals from around the world to attend the event in November and be part of an edition that will showcase opportunities emerging across Bahrain and the wider Gulf region.
Recognised as the premier international meeting for the global exhibitions industry, the UFI Global Congress brings together hundreds of CEOs, venue operators, organisers, association leaders, government representatives, and industry innovators from around the world to discuss the future of exhibitions, business events, and international collaboration.
Hosting the Congress in Bahrain reflects the Kingdom’s rapid emergence as one of the Middle East’s leading business events destinations and provides delegates with a unique opportunity to experience a market that continues to invest in innovation, connectivity, sustainability, and world-class event infrastructure.
Beyond the programme, delegates will benefit from unparalleled networking opportunities with senior decision-makers, exclusive industry insights, thought-provoking keynote sessions, and first-hand exposure to one of the region’s newest and most advanced exhibition and convention centres.
The event also offers a gateway to the wider Gulf region, enabling international participants to build new partnerships and explore one of the fastest-growing markets globally.
The congress will feature a comprehensive programme of strategic discussions, international keynote speakers, leadership forums, business networking opportunities, technical visits, and innovations shaping the future of the global exhibition industry.
