Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping economies worldwide, with projections estimating its contribution to the MENA region could reach USD 320 billion by 2030 (PwC, 2024). At the same time, the region faces high youth unemployment, currently 24%, nearly double the global average (ILO, 2024).

The AI and the Future of Work Forum brings together leaders from government, academia, and industry to explore how AI is transforming employment, education, and skills development across the UAE and wider MENA region.

This Forum is a flagship feature of the Ras Al Khaimah Jobs and Internships Festival (RAKJIF 2025), Ras Al Khaimah's leading career fair connecting Emirati jobseekers with top employers. Together, the festival and forum create a powerful platform for career development, Emiratization and forward-looking conversations on the future of work.
