The second edition of the BRIDGE summit will be held from November 28 to December 2, relocating its venue to Yas Island in Abu Dhabi, with the global event extended to five days.
The announcement was made during the Board of Directors meeting of the BRIDGE Alliance, chaired by Abdullah bin Mohammed bin Butti Al Hamed.
The group added that the summit will transition from an annual event model to a year-round sustainable platform based on specialised tracks that address challenges facing the media sector.
It also aims to expand partnerships and launch practical initiatives that support responsible innovation to reflect its efforts as a global reference for credibility and professional collaboration.
Abdullah Al Hamed affirmed that the content will focus on the creative economy, information integrity, and empowering future generations to shape a media landscape that not only conveys news but also creates opportunities.
He emphasised that the goal is to transition from momentum to institutionalisation, from dialogue to execution, and from gathering voices to unifying efforts.
The first edition of the summit was previously from December 8–10, 2025 at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre (ADNEC) in Abu Dhabi.
