Three days at the Arena Kuwait in November, given over to technology, innovation and startups. Nexus 2026 runs from 26 to 28 November under the patronage of the Ministry of Communications, and entry is free.
Four tracks
The exhibition: floor space where companies show their newest work.
The startup competition: founders pitch their ideas to investors and specialists.
Conferences and workshops: sessions led by people working in artificial intelligence, digital transformation and cybersecurity.
Kuwait Hackathon: a “capture the flag” challenge aimed at programmers and anyone who enjoys the technical side. That format works by hunting for vulnerabilities hidden in systems built for the purpose, and whoever finds one first takes the point.
The hours are not the same each day
Thursday and Saturday: 10 in the morning to 8 at night.
Friday: 2 in the afternoon to 8 at night. Four hours shorter — the same pattern that repeats at the Wadhefati fair from the same organiser.
The stated aim
The organisers say the purpose is to put Kuwait at the front of technological development, by bringing thought leaders, technology companies, investors and government bodies under one roof.
