Join 250+ professionals from all disciplines redefining urban life
The conference will explore how tall buildings and urban spaces can work together to address complex urban challenges — from land use and livability to climate adaptation, mobility and economic growth — through the lens of this year’s theme: From the Souk to the Skyline, Stitching Streets into the Fabric of a Connected City. Hosted at Atlantis The Royal — Best Tall Building by Height (2023 CTBUH Award of Excellence) and Best Tall Building by Region (2023 CTBUH Award Winner) — the event will feature thought-provoking discussions, ground breaking projects, and a two-way exchange: applying global urban insights to regional challenges while spotlighting Middle East innovations that can inform cities worldwide.
