Dubai– The Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Knowledge Foundation

(MBRF), in partnership with the United Nations Development Programme
(UNDP) and the Permanent Mission of the United Arab Emirates to the United
Nations, has announced the details of the 10th edition of the Knowledge

Summit, which will be held on 19–20 November 2025 at the Dubai World Trade
Centre.

The announcement was made during a high-level event at the United Nations
Headquarters in New York, marking a significant milestone for the Summit as it

celebrates its tenth anniversary. This year’s edition will explore the theme
of “Knowledge Markets” — focusing on how knowledge can serve as an
economic and social catalyst for growth, inclusion, and empowerment.

The Summit will provide a global platform to exchange insights, present
international best practices in sustainable development, and emphasize the

importance of strategic partnerships and investment in developing integrated
knowledge ecosystems.

Through more than 45 dialogue sessions and participation from around 130
distinguished speakers — including government leaders, business executives,
academics, and development experts — the Summit will facilitate discussions

on AI, blockchain, big data, education, innovation, intellectual property,
research, and social transformation.
