IGEL to Host Now & Next® Workspace and Security Summit in Dubai, UAE
IGEL's Notable Impact in Endpoint Security at the Now & Next® Dubai Summit
On October 21, 2026, IGEL®, the renowned software company specializing in adaptive secure endpoint platforms, will convene its Now & Next® Workspace and Endpoint Security Summit at Dubai Knowledge Park. This event aims to bridge key players in IT and security, focusing on improving endpoint security, resilience, and the efficiency of workspace delivery. The summit is a part of IGEL’s ongoing effort to empower businesses at a time when security concerns are increasingly prevalent.
Having recently undergone a successful five-city tour across Europe, this summit marks IGEL's first foray into Dubai, a region experiencing rapid digital transformation. Given the staggering statistics from the UAE Government Cybersecurity Council indicating up to 200,000 cyber-attack attempts daily, the summit aims to provide strategic insights that organizations can leverage to strengthen their defense mechanisms against these threats.
Klaus Oestermann, CEO of IGEL, emphasizes, “Organizations we’re in contact with consistently express a desire to have more robust control at the endpoint and enhance resilience to disruptions. Our Now & Next® summit is designed to facilitate meaningful discussions around these essential topics.”
This summit will provide a platform for IGEL leaders, partners, and clients to exchange ideas and strategies related to effective endpoint security. Not only will IGEL lead the sessions, but attendees from partner organizations will also share real-world insights and professional expertise. Noteworthy sponsors like Microsoft, Omnissa, and Lenovo will contribute to the conversations, enriching attendees with practical perspectives.
The sessions will run from morning till afternoon and will consist of expert-led discussions followed by an executive panel and networking lunch. “Dubai serves as a vital nexus for technology leaders in the Middle East. Our objective with this summit is to gather regional experts to address the unique challenges they face today and evolve these conversations into actionable strategies,” said Carsten Thomsen, VP of Sales for Emerging Markets at IGEL.
The agenda for the event will cover pivotal areas such as security challenges, resilience, and strategies for modernizing the digital workspace. Attendees will delve into various topics that are critical for contemporary enterprises looking to secure their digital landscape amidst an influx of technological innovations.
As organizations increasingly invest in artificial intelligence and cloud services, the complexities of managing security across various platforms and services are amplified. IGEL's solutions aim to alleviate some of these concerns by fostering a secure environment that supports cloud, VDI, DaaS, and enterprise applications. The underlying IGEL OS helps reduce the attack surface, maintaining a reliable state that businesses can trust.
The summit at Dubai Knowledge Park symbolizes not just an event, but a rallying point for enterprises striving to thrive in a digitally connected world. Whether you are an IT manager or a security officer, the insights shared at this summit will provide invaluable guidance as organizations seek to enhance their cyber resilience and operational continuity.
Conclusively, with the rate at which technology is evolving, summits like the Now & Next® offer a timely opportunity for professionals to network, share challenges, and collaboratively seek solutions that can propel their organizations toward more secure futures.
