Dubai: The 7th edition of the World Government Summit (WGS) will be held from February 10 to 12, 2019 instead of February 17 to 19.

The next gathering was set to be held from February 17 to 19, 2019 but the World Government Summit Organisation said that the date amendment is meant to ensure that it does not conflict with major international events to be held during that period, allowing high-profile personalities and entities from the UAE and the world to participate in its work.
