Meet Trendtracker at Dubai Future Forum 2026
Dubai Future Forum brings together the world's most influential futurists, policymakers, technologists, and strategic thinkers for two days of deep exploration into what comes next. Hosted by the Dubai Future Foundation, it is one of the few events on the global calendar where foresight is not a side conversation, it's the entire agenda.
Our Co-founder and CEO Vincent Defour and Sales & Accounts Director Thibault De Gryse are heading to Dubai to listen, learn, and bring back the sharpest thinking on the future of strategic foresight, and what it means for the organisations we work with every day.
Why Dubai Future Forum
Trendtracker is built on the conviction that the best strategic decisions are grounded in the best possible understanding of what is coming. Dubai Future Forum is one of the world's premier environments for exactly that kind of thinking, where governments, institutions, and innovators gather not to recap the past, but to map what is next.
We go because the conversations happening here shape how we evolve Trendtracker's intelligence practice. The frameworks debated on these stages, the signals discussed in the corridors, the emerging methodologies being stress-tested by the world's leading foresight practitioners, all of it feeds directly into how we serve our clients.
What We Are Taking Back
Vincent and Thibault will be listening closely to the latest thinking across:
- The future of foresight methodology: how organisations are evolving from scenario planning to continuous, signal-driven intelligence
- AI and the future of strategic decision-making: where human judgment and machine intelligence intersect in planning and leadership
- Geopolitical and macroeconomic signals: the long-horizon shifts that are already reshaping industries and competitive landscapes
- The next generation of organisational resilience: how leading institutions are building the capacity to act on foresight, not just produce it
Connect With Us in Dubai
If you are attending Dubai Future Forum, we would genuinely welcome the conversation - not to pitch, but to exchange ideas.
Vincent and Thibault are there to engage with the community: futurists, researchers, policymakers, practitioners, and anyone thinking seriously about what strategic intelligence should look like in the years ahead.
Whether you want to compare notes on a session, discuss how foresight practice is evolving inside your organisation, or simply connect over a shared interest in what comes next — reach out and let's find time.
