Expo 2020 Hub Dubai
The United Arab Emirates will host the World Expo in Dubai in 2020, marking the first time the World’s Fair will be held in the region. As one of the largest and oldest mega-events, the Expo will launch the country’s Golden Jubilee celebration, serving as a springboard from which to inaugurate a progressive and sustainable vision for the coming decades. At Expo 2020 Hub Dubai,
theme is ‘Connecting Minds, Creating the Future’. The overall theme recognises that generating sustainable solutions to global problems demands collaboration across cultures and regions whilst the sub-themes of Opportunity, Mobility and Sustainability define the principal drivers of progress. Dubai’s Arabic name - Al Wasl - means ‘the connection’, and this is reflected in Dubai’s modern day position as a central hub between East and West. With an anticipated 25 million visits to our Expo Hub, and 70 per cent of visitors predicted to come from overseas, it will be the most globally inclusive event in Expo history. Expo 2020 Hub Dubai is building upon its theme and using it as a design principle for the event. The theme will be visible in how we engage with participants, create opportunities for the public and private sector to work together, and how we will strive to make collaboration an essential instrument to deliver an event with the level of quality and impact needed to mark this out as a truly transformative Expo.
