Nakisa, a global enterprise AI software company serving large organizations across the public and private sectors, has been selected to participate in the World Governments Summit 2026 (WGS) in Dubai from February 3–5 as part of Scale AI's Canadian AI and technology delegation.
The summit brings together governments, international organizations, and leaders to discuss how applied AI is supporting policy development, planning, and large-scale decision-making across the public sector.
Representing Canadian AI innovation on the global stage
We are honored to be selected as one of 14 organizations, chosen from more than 200 applicants, to join Scale AI’s delegation. The mission highlights Canada’s leadership in AI and emerging technologies by showcasing companies building mature, real-world technologies for complex, high-stakes environments. Under the theme “Shaping Future Governments”, discussions will center on how governments are evolving governance approaches to meet technological and societal change.
Following the launch of Nakisa’s agentic decision intelligence platform and our transition to an AI-first company, we’re focused on delivering AI solutions for the scale and complexity of large enterprises and governments. Today, public-sector organizations worldwide rely on Nakisa to drive mission‑critical decisions about capital investments, real estate and asset portfolios, workforce and skills planning, and policy impacts across healthcare, defense, energy, employment and economic development, infrastructure, and transportation.
Nakisa will be represented by members of its leadership team, including Babak Varjavandi, CEO, and Saleh Bahrololoum, Vice President of Business Development and Partnership. We’re pleased to contribute our deep expertise and experience in integrating data, people, processes, and technology to support confident decision-making, planning, and execution at enterprise scale, in support of public-sector modernization.
Attending PropTech Connect Middle East
While in Dubai, Nakisa will also attend PropTech Connect Middle East, the region’s largest real estate technology event. The forum provides a strategic lens into how real estate and asset-intensive organizations across the UAE and wider GCC are modernizing real estate portfolio management, workplace operations, and financial governance through data-driven platforms. It offers an opportunity to gain insight into the evolving challenges facing real estate teams across the region, while sharing Nakisa’s deep, enterprise-grade expertise in these areas.
