Safe Dubai 2026 forum details
Encardio Rite will host the 2026 edition of Safe Dubai on 13 February 2026 at the Grand Hyatt, Dubai.
The company said the one-day forum will bring together senior industry experts to examine emerging trends and challenges and how monitoring data is being used to reduce risk, plan interventions more effectively and make stronger lifecycle decisions.
Keynote and discussion themes
Professor Kenichi Soga, from University of California, Berkeley, is scheduled to deliver the keynote address.
Arushi Bhalla, Managing Director, Encardio Rite Group of Companies, said: “Smart construction has progressed from data collection to predictive and intelligence-driven asset management.
“Today’s challenge is not access to data, but the ability to interpret it in a way that improves safety, performance, and lifecycle outcomes.
“Safe Dubai 2026 provides a platform to examine how infrastructure intelligence is being applied across complex, real-world projects.”
The announcement also referenced a McKinsey report estimating global construction industry inefficiencies at US$1.6 trillion annually, linked to limited visibility and fragmented insights.
