GITEX AI ASIA returns to Marina Bay Sands on 9–10 April 2026, bringing a multi‑industry programme of conferences, demonstrations and deal‑making focused on artificial intelligence, deep tech and digital infrastructure.
Organisers expect the event to attract more than 23,000 tech buyers and decision‑makers, upwards of 550 enterprises and startups, 250 investors and participants from over 110 countries.
The two‑day event will co‑locate several focused shows to serve distinct industry needs: AI Everything Singapore for enterprise AI deployment and use cases; Startups North Star Asia to connect founders with investors and ecosystem partners; Digi_Health & Biotech Singapore for healthcare and life‑sciences technology; Global Data Centres Asia addressing infrastructure and resilience; Gitex Quantum Expo Asia for quantum computing and quantum‑safe security; and GISEC Asia, the region’s dedicated cybersecurity forum.
Together, these platforms create an integrated marketplace spanning innovation, infrastructure, security and investment.
GISEC Asia 2026: what CISOs can expect
GISEC Asia is positioned as the primary cybersecurity stream within GITEX AI ASIA, focusing on defending cloud environments, protecting critical infrastructure and addressing the new threat surfaces created by large‑scale AI and automation. The track will host keynote sessions and panel discussions on topics relevant to chief information security officers (CISOs), including AI‑assisted threat hunting, zero‑trust architectures for hybrid and multi‑cloud estates, identity and access governance for machine‑to‑machine interactions, and resilience planning for operational continuity.
Practical sessions and case studies are planned to explore incident response orchestration, vulnerability management for AI supply chains, secure design for data‑centric systems (including data governance for model training sets), and the implications of quantum‑safe cryptography for long‑term data protection.
The GISEC programme also aims to facilitate peer‑to‑peer dialogue through CISO roundtables and curated networking, enabling security leaders to compare approaches to governance, regulation and cross‑industry threat intelligence sharing.
Attendees can expect keynote addresses from global technology leaders, enterprise case studies, investor matchmaking and startup pitching, product launches and curated networking opportunities across the full event. The programme is framed to help organisations explore how AI is built, governed and deployed at scale across the economy, while providing forums for infrastructure and security discussions that underpin AI adoption.
Registration is open, with a free visitor pass available and a limited number of discounted conference passes. The organisers are positioning Singapore as a regional anchor and gateway between Asia’s digital economy and the wider global technology landscape, aiming to facilitate enterprise adoption, startup investment and cross‑border collaboration.
For infrastructure and operations teams, the Global Data Centres Asia track will address data‑centre capacity, energy and connectivity issues relevant to AI workloads. For security professionals, GISEC Asia will deliver focused content on threat trends, resilience planning and protection strategies for cloud, edge and critical systems. Startups and investors will find concentrated pitching and matchmaking sessions in Startups North Star Asia, while Digi_Health & Biotech will showcase clinical applications and life‑sciences innovation.
GITEX AI ASIA 2026 reiterates the growing emphasis on cross‑sector approaches to AI adoption: balancing technical deployment with governance, infrastructure planning and cybersecurity. The event seeks to convene the mix of government, corporate, investor and startup stakeholders needed to address those interlocking challenges and opportunities.
