IPS 2026 to Convene in Dubai, Highlighting Global Real Estate Investment Opportunities

Dubai is set to host the 22nd edition of IPS 2026, the premier property investment platform in the Middle East, from September 7 to 9, 2026, at the Dubai World Trade Centre. The event, held in strategic partnership with the Dubai Land Department (DLD), aims to connect global institutional investors, capital allocators, and policymakers with significant development portfolios across the sector.

The exhibition will feature over 300 exhibitors, including prominent names like Azizi Properties, Binghatti, Danube, Fakhruddin Properties, SanZen, and Union Properties. These developers will showcase a diverse range of residential, mixed-use, and commercial projects in Dubai's key investment markets. The platform provides direct access to active development portfolios, project pipelines, and investment opportunities spanning residential, hospitality, smart city infrastructure, and commercial real estate.

IPS 2026 anticipates an attendance exceeding 30,000 global participants, comprising developers, investors, and policymakers. The event is structured around five core pillars:

• Real Estate
• Future Cities
• Startups & PropTech
• Design
• Services

This multi-faceted approach allows investors to engage with comprehensive development ecosystems. Specialist conferences will look at institutional capital flows, regulatory frameworks, and market performance at both regional and international levels. Dedicated deal-making platforms will facilitate direct negotiations between capital allocators and development operators, while PropTech innovation zones will highlight emerging technologies transforming property transactions and asset management.

Building on the success of the 2025 edition, which attracted 30,719 visitors from 153 countries and generated over USD 500 million in transactions, IPS 2026 continues to be a crucial platform for linking global institutional capital with significant investment opportunities. A key differentiator for 2026 is its co-location with AIM Congress, a leading global investment platform. This convergence is expected to broaden the relevance of IPS beyond traditional property transactions, incorporating wider economic forces and policy environments that shape global investment strategies.
