GITEX EUROPE, the inaugural European edition of the global tech event that originated in Dubai, is set to be one of Europe’s largest tech and digital investment launches.

“Germany as the world’s third largest economy and GITEX as the world’s largest tech event brand across continents have a shared commitment to forge collaboration in research and application of tech to solve global challenges,” said Trixie LohMirmand, CEO of KAOUN International and organiser of GITEX worldwide.

The event features specialised showcases including North Star Europe, Ai Everything Europe, GITEX Quantum Expo, GITEX Cyber Valley, and the Green Digital Action Summit.

Berlin’s governing mayor Kai Wegner called the event “a big achievement that confirms Berlin’s importance as an international location for industry events and innovation,” while Franziska Giffey, Mayor of Berlin & Senator for Economic Affairs, described Berlin and GITEX as “a perfect match.”

“Together, we build a unique opportunity for industry innovators, startups and scale-ups to meet, foster progress and fuel economic growth. As Europe’s startup and innovation capital, and as a city deeply rooted in the spirit of international cooperation, we cordially welcome all GITEX EUROPE participants to Berlin,” Giffey added.
