STARS (Science, Technology, Arts, and Research Summit)

NOV 18-21, 2026

Dubai

Science is changing how we understand the body, the mind, creativity, identity and purpose.

STARS is where researchers, scientists, technologists, and artists build a lasting community around a shared inquiry, treating art and research as equal forms of the same pursuit. This year, STARS explores what happens when AI, biology, neuroscience, robotics, and psychology intersect, and what it means for us as humans. Supporting Dubai’s ambition to become a global hub for research, development, and innovation. The inaugural STARS brings science beyond the lab and into conversation, art, and experience, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, advancing research, and inspiring discoveries with real-world impact.
