“The high calibre of international speakers that we have on the programme this year coupled with the planned attendance of several Government Ministers has prompted us to search for a brand new home for the Summit. At The Palladium we can take advantage of some of the newest conference facilities in the city – the venue houses a purpose built conference centre and plenty of modern exhibition space for our exhibitors. This is good news for the Summit and good news for our visitors to Dubai.”

The Palladium

Situated in the heart of Dubai Media City, The Palladium is the most functional and adaptable multi-purpose space in the Middle East. Offering state-of-the-art facilities including a new purpose built conference centre, 17 meter- high ceilings, 26m² of open space, world class audio visual systems, along with four restaurant dining facilities, the venue is the ideal venue for the Middle East Waste Summit.
