AI + Cybersecurity Forum 2026 (Kuwait)
📅 Monday, 5 October 2026 → Tuesday, 6 October 2026 in 80 days
An executive forum on artificial intelligence and cybersecurity, with workshops and panels, at the American International University, Kuwait.
The AI & Cybersecurity Forum 2026 is an executive forum hosted by the American International University (AIU) in Kuwait City on 5–6 October 2026, at the intersection of two of the most consequential themes in enterprise technology: artificial intelligence and cybersecurity. As one of the few dedicated AI events anchored in Kuwait, it is a notable fixture for the Gulf's technology and security community.
The forum blends keynotes, panels and workshops around how AI is reshaping both sides of the security equation — machine learning for threat detection, anomaly and fraud analysis and security-operations automation on the defensive side, and the new risks AI introduces, from adversarial attacks and model security to the misuse of generative AI, on the other. Governance, regulation and the building of institutional and national cyber-resilience are recurring threads. Hosted by a university, it bridges academic study and professional practice, with an audience oriented toward CISOs, IT and security leaders, academics and public-sector stakeholders rather than a purely research crowd. For organisations across Kuwait and the wider GCC weighing how to adopt AI securely, it offers a concentrated, regional venue; attendees should confirm the agenda on the official AIU page.
