Think of World Expos as a global gathering of nations dedicated to finding solutions to pressing challenges of our time. They are organized every 5 years and provide a platform for people and businesses to come together, share ideas, discuss issues and advance on topics that will influence the future. The next World Expo, Expo 2020, will take place in Dubai. It will start on October 1, 2021 and run for 6 months.

The choice of Dubai to host the event is a celebration of the largest UAE Emirate's strengths in diversity, infrastructure and stability. All these attributes are supported and amplified by the fact that the UAE is perfectly situated geographically, connecting three continents, Europe, Asia and Africa. With Dubai historically called Al Wasl, or the 'Connection', it makes perfect sense that the theme of this Expo 2020 was chosen to be 'Connecting Minds, Creating the Future'.
