Creator's Key Takeaways
So it was it was a very rewarding two days.
We've spending 10 billion dirhams on expanding the Dubai exhibition center.
We had 2.6 million visitors last year and since we're growing our capacity so much uh you can expect that number to grow dramatically.
I think there's enormous potential for that given the large number of people that move into Dubai every year including young people.

Dubai World Trade Center's Vision for 2026 | Vice President on Hospitality, MICE & Tourism Growth Ronald Philip, Vice President Dubai World Trade Centre reflects positively on their experience at the 2026 conference, emphasizing the value of networking and knowledge gained over the two days. From the Dubai World Trade Center (DWTC) perspective, there is a strong focus on expanding the MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) and tourism sectors. The DWTC is investing 10 billion dirhams to double the size of the Dubai Exhibition Center, which will significantly increase the capacity for exhibitions and attract more visitors. Last year, the center hosted 2.6 million visitors, and with the expansion, this number is expected to rise substantially. Regarding overlooked aspects of the hospitality industry in Dubai, the interviewee points to three key areas: hospitality-adjacent sectors like co-living, senior living, and longevity hospitality. Co-living is identified as an area with great potential due to the influx of young people moving to Dubai annually. Senior living is also highlighted, considering Dubai’s appeal as a safe, well-connected city with excellent infrastructure, attracting retirees worldwide. Lastly, longevity hospitality is mentioned as a promising new asset class, though details were not extensively discussed in this segment. 🔔 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more travel insights and destination guides! 🎥 Other Recommended Videos / Playlists https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8lnsQMrJiEetixtqMjk3x_KBL1rECx-M&si=ApOHJW90uvEXdTiF https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8lnsQMrJiEclBq3cl9WKaRq4AmMVArVz&si=hV5dEHG4v4mrfuf3 https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8lnsQMrJiEcGMfdtLwx8U8tNCBcyESy6&si=zQC5cM1qPO62ioXs Travel And Tour World is more than a magazine – it’s a global trade communication platform for the travel and hospitality ecosystem.
