Reaffirmation: Emirati Women’s Day

September 28, 2026 | Dubai

Executive Summary

On August 28, the UAE honours its women. On September 28, we will gather — not for ceremony, but for conviction. This year, our Emirati Women’s Day event will not be a celebration in the conventional sense. It will be a reaffirmation. Of the UAE’s extraordinary resilience. Of the wise leadership that steadies it through turbulent times. And of the nation’s unwavering commitment to empowering women — not as a gesture, but as a governing principle.

Key Takeaways

Every leader who walks out of this room on September 28 will leave with more than inspiration. They will leave with conviction — and the tools to act on it.

Clarity on what resilient leadership actually looks like — drawn from the lived experience of leaders who have navigated real disruption, in real organisations, in real time.
A sharper understanding of the UAE’s women’s empowerment agenda — and what it means for every organisation operating in this market right now.
Honest, unfiltered peer intelligence — the kind that only emerges in a room where senior women trust each other enough to tell the truth.
A personal reaffirmation — of your role, your contribution, and your responsibility as a woman shaping the region’s future.
Connections that outlast the event — with the most influential women’s leadership network in the UAE.

Because the most valuable thing you will take home is not a notebook full of notes. It is the knowledge that you are not leading alone.

What to Expect?

An intimate, high-impact gathering of senior leaders, board members, and decision-makers. Expect curated conversations. Expect uncomfortable truths. Expect the kind of dialogue that is out of the box.
