It aims to build business bridges across the MENA, stimulate the growth of the Arab knowledge economy, and support the creation of new businesses and job opportunities for the youth, through conferences, partnerships, and competitions.

The 3-day conference will feature high-caliber, international and regional speakers, who are themselves initiators of change, and ready to introduce the latest into MENA. The conference kicks off with the Design+Code day, a pre-conference set of workshops designed to train developers, designers and entrepreneurs on building great web & mobile products. ArabNet Beirut 2016 then carries on with the two-day Forum, focused on the latest in digital media, e-business, technology and entrepreneurship. Covered topics range  from new ventures in social media, to hardware innovation, educational technology, and the latest in entrepreneurship development such as the Maker Movement. 

ArabNet Beirut 2016 will be held at the prestigious Habtoor Hilton Hotel in Beirut, on March 1, 2 and 3.
