With this launch, ADNEC becomes the first venue within the exhibitions and conferences sector in the MENA region to launch a customer interactive machine learning chatbot, and among the top companies globally to adopt this new technology, which contributes to facilitating and accelerating the process of providing information to public and private sector customers.
ADNEC will launch the trial stage of ‘Jawab’ during the Middle East Games Con 2018 which will run from 25th to 27th October 2018 at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre, aimed at testing and developing the program on the company’s website, www.adnec.ae.

The interactive chatbot is among the smart applications that are capable of learning with time, by analyzing customer queries and updating future information.
