The Ruler of Dubai declared that due to the advancements in the UAE, he believes the country will see some rapid recovery post-pandemic.
“Gitex will be the most important and realistic global technical event in 2020 and the UAE will be the fastest country to recover in the world,” the Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE said in an announcement on Twitter.
“The event will have the participation of 200 important technology investment companies and 350 speakers in artificial intelligence, smart cities, financial technology, the future of education and health, and the future of remote work.”
