Function1 2025 is a flagship AI Conference & Exhibition scheduled for November 18–19, 2025, at the Festival Arena in Dubai, bringing together the global AI community under the banner “Where the AI World Gathers.” The event is expected to host more than 150 speakers, 100+ exhibitors, and around 10,000 attendees from over 100 countries, with a strong representation from founders and C-level executives (~64 %). Across three stages, participants will explore themes like decentralised AI, human–AI collaboration, robotics, AI agents, and industry-specific AI applications. In addition to the conference and exhibition, /function1 will host supporting programs such as a large-scale hackathon (AI Genesis), a Founders program, and the AI Futures Lab for youth and students. Startups can also apply for special packages that include exhibition booth space, founder passes, and branding exposure.

The event is created by CREZEE, a well-known production and consulting company founded in 2014. The team at CREZEE has deep experience in organizing global tech and crypto events. In the past, they have hosted top speakers like Vitalik Buterin, the Winklevoss twins, Tim Draper, Ben Goertzel, CZ (Binance), and Yat Siu.

FUNCTION1 2025 is more than a conference — it’s where the future of AI, Web3, and crypto comes alive. Whether you’re a founder, investor, developer, or creator, this is the place to connect, learn, and build what’s next.
