Unlike any other event, XPANSE is a transformation in the model of traditional convening combining 3 prongs: a powerful agenda-shaping forum with the world’s most credible visionary voices, an experiential immersive design combining multi-media and sensory experiences, and a 365-day ecosystem-building engine to activate and hatch opportunities at the cross-section of industry, science, investment, creativity and policy.
XPANSE is a strategic partnership between MATTER, ADNEC group and hosted by ADQ, the holding company based in Abu Dhabi, to enrich the international exponential technology landscape.
Established in 2018, ADQ is an Abu Dhabi-based investment and holding company with a diverse portfolio of major enterprises.
Its investments span key sectors of the UAE’s economy, including energy and utilities, food and agriculture, healthcare and life sciences, and transport and logistics, among others. As a strategic partner to the Government of Abu Dhabi, ADQ is dedicated to accelerating the transformation of the Emirate into a globally competitive and knowledge-based economy.
