Kuwait is preparing to host the seventh edition of the virtual GCC conference "Techno Innovation, Techno Entrepreneurship, and Techno AI," scheduled for July 26-27, under the theme "An Innovative Gulf and a Diversified Economy." The conference is organized by Ecosystem Management and Economic Consulting, stemming from a Gulf-Arab initiative launched in 2020 aimed at raising global competitiveness indicators through smart programs. Nearly 100 experts, policymakers, academics, and business figures are set to participate, alongside 28 leading figures including sheikhs, ministers, and regional and international experts, aiming to exchange insights on digitization-based economic diversification. The conference will also host 10 inventors and innovators from Gulf and Arab countries who hold international patents and awards, alongside the participation of 10 regional entrepreneurial startups. The event comes amid growing regional interest in integrating AI into government and service sectors, as part of a broader push to support the "New Kuwait 2035" vision.
