Abu Dhabi-based AI and cloud computing powerhouse G42 has announced its major participation at Gitex Global 2025 with the launch of the G42 District. This dynamic experience space, located at the Dubai World Trade Centre, is designed to showcase the group’s vision for “AI Native Societies,” where intelligence is seamlessly integrated into governance, infrastructure, and daily life. The event is scheduled to run from October 13 to 17, 2025.
The G42 District Experience
Situated in Hall 6, the G42 District will function as an interactive hub for government leaders, executives, and tech professionals. It will unite G42’s entire ecosystem of companies, including Core42, Khazna, M42, Presight, and Space42, among others. Visitors can expect live demonstrations, high-level discussions, and immersive showcases illustrating how G42’s AI capabilities are driving transformation across critical industries.
A Vision for AI Native Societies
Central to G42’s showcase is the concept of AI Native Societies—communities built upon sovereign infrastructure and trusted intelligence systems. This framework aims to accelerate modernization, enhance national resilience, and improve citizen services. The vision is powered by G42’s “Intelligence Grid,” a distributed AI ecosystem engineered to make advanced intelligence accessible, secure, and scalable for nations and enterprises. “Our presence reflects the scale of our partnerships and how the concept of AI Native Societies is taking shape across all aspects of life and the economy,” said Faheem Ahamed, Group Chief Marketing and Experience Officer at G42.
G42 and OpenAI CEOs to Share Stage
A key highlight of the event will be a fireside chat titled “From Early Adoption to AI Native Societies,” featuring G42 CEO Peng Xiao and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman. The discussion is set to explore how the principles of responsible innovation and sovereign capability are shaping the future of artificial intelligence. G42 will also host over 30 sessions with global partners like Microsoft, Oracle, and Cisco, covering topics from public service modernization to AI’s role in healthcare, finance, and energy.
Sovereign AI for Public Sector Transformation
In addition to its main presence, G42 will exhibit in Hall 18 (Global Digital Cities Hall) to present G42 for Government. This suite of sovereign AI solutions is tailored to help public institutions modernize their digital services, strengthen resilience, and safely scale their AI capabilities. The week will also feature bilateral meetings, MoU signings, and programs spotlighting Women in AI and Young Emiratis in AI, reinforcing G42’s commitment to fostering local talent.
