The Mobile Developers Week, scheduled for December 13-15, 2025, in Abu Dhabi, is set to become a landmark event for Android developers, innovators, and industry leaders. Organized by OMNES Technologies, a leader in MarTech innovation in the MENA region, the event will unite droidcon Abu Dhabi and Swift Heroes Abu Dhabi under one roof for the first time. This convergence aims to explore the transformative potential of on-device artificial intelligence (AI) and Android performance enhancements, driving the next generation of user experiences.
Samsung Gulf Electronics, a strategic partner of the event, underscores its commitment to advancing AI-driven performance, efficiency, and privacy on mainstream devices. With the global on-device AI market projected to grow at a CAGR of 24.6% to reach $124 billion by 2025, the event highlights the immense opportunities in this rapidly evolving sector. Fahed Aldeeb, CEO of OMNES Technologies, emphasized the importance of addressing user needs such as privacy, personalization, and power efficiency while keeping pace with technological advancements.
The event will feature three key sessions: ‘The State of AI/ML on Android,’ focusing on performance optimization and embedded intelligence; ‘AI in Your Pocket: Implementing LiteRT in Android Apps,’ offering hands-on insights into real-time AI models; and ‘Empowering Android Apps with Local Google Gemini,’ exploring native AI integration. These sessions align with Samsung’s vision of democratizing AI, making it accessible and intuitive for all users.
Mobile Developers Week will also host interactive exhibitions, networking zones, live app launches, and startup pitches across four stages: GovAI Summit, NextPlay Arena, droidcon Abu Dhabi, and Swift Heroes Abu Dhabi. Supported by the Abu Dhabi Convention & Exhibition Bureau and various media partners, the event is expected to attract 3,000 visitors, fostering collaboration among developers, engineers, entrepreneurs, and investors to shape the future of mobile innovation.
