Hosted by Masdar, the event will unite world leaders, investors and innovators to accelerate real-world solutions across interconnected global systems.

ADSW 2026 comes at a moment when the world is straddling two realities: the systems we rely on today and the ones we urgently need for tomorrow.

Under its theme “The Nexus of Next: All Systems Go,” the 2026 edition will challenge leaders across energy, finance, food, water and nature to rethink how these systems connect, scale and reinforce one another.

The week will spotlight technologies reshaping global resilience including AI-driven energy networks, climate-finance innovations, and solutions strengthening food and water security.

By convening leaders from across these intertwined domains, ADSW 2026 aims to set a new global benchmark for collaboration and measurable impact.

For over 18 years, ADSW has served as a catalyst for international cooperation, enabling major partnerships that advance global sustainability efforts.

ADSW 2025 gathered more than 50,000 participants from over 170 countries, including 13 Heads of State and senior government leaders.
