Redington Global NEXT 2026 brings 400 tech leaders together
AI adoption is entering a more practical phase, where questions around security, governance, infrastructure and execution matter as much as the technology itself. Redington Global NEXT 2026 will put these issues at the centre of its three-day leadership summit in Singapore from 2–4 September.
The invitation-only event is expected to bring around 400 leaders from technology companies, channel partners, enterprises, ISVs, innovators and policymakers across Asia, the Middle East and Africa.
Global NEXT 2026 moves beyond AI experimentation
The summit comes as enterprises, SMBs and the public sector look beyond AI experimentation and towards secure, responsible and scalable deployment.
The Global NEXT AI Summit will focus on sovereign AI, national technology infrastructure, data governance, cybersecurity and enterprise adoption. The wider programme will examine how these areas need to work together to deliver measurable outcomes.
That is also where Redington's ecosystem approach comes into play. The company describes its role as connecting global innovation with local market intelligence, specialised capabilities, partner reach and execution across more than 40 markets.
Singapore becomes the meeting point
Redington Global NEXT 2026 will combine leadership discussions with technology demonstrations, enterprise use cases and visits to technology centres of excellence in Singapore, including the Redington AI Launchpad.
The programme will also feature emerging technology companies and specialist ISVs across AI, cloud, cybersecurity, data infrastructure and enterprise applications.
Rather than focusing only on individual products, the event will explore how infrastructure, cloud, data, cybersecurity, applications, skills, services, financing and implementation can come together around business outcomes.
Artificial Intelligence and Sovereign AI take focus
Sovereign AI and data governance will sit alongside cybersecurity and enterprise adoption in the summit agenda. This puts the question of control and responsible deployment alongside the question of what AI can actually deliver.
Redington's AI Exchange, digital platforms, skilling capabilities and partner enablement programmes will also feature as part of its wider ecosystem.
