About AIBC Eurasia 2027
AIBC Eurasia is SiGMA Group's annual Dubai summit, bringing together leaders from emerging tech (AI, blockchain, fintech, IoT, quantum computing, big data) and the gaming industry, with a focus on the MENA region. Its partner roster is dominated by iGaming platform, game and payment suppliers alongside crypto and fintech firms. The 2027 edition runs 15-17 March 2027 at Festival Arena in Dubai Festival City, following a sixth edition held at the same venue in February 2026. The programme opens on 15 March with pre-registration, the SiGMA Nexus Elite Golf Tour, a Platinum-ticket activity, a welcome reception and the Eurasia Awards. The exhibition and a two-day conference run on 16 and 17 March, with networking drinks each afternoon, the AIBC Awards on the evening of 16 March and the SiGMA Official Party closing the event. The organiser has also announced a full-day workshop and tour of Wynn Al Marjan Island in Ras Al Khaimah, which is why the event is billed as 'RAK – Dubai'.
