Zina joins the AI in Dubai Conference 2026 as one of the youngest yet most promising innovators in the region’s growing AI landscape.

At just 22 years old, she has already established herself as an instructor at the American University in the Emirates (AUE) and an emerging voice shaping the future of AI-driven applications and research.

Zina is the developer behind an AI-powered personal expense tracker that demonstrates both technical excellence and practical impact. Her ability to translate complex AI concepts into accessible, user-friendly solutions reflects a maturity and vision far beyond her age.

Beyond her technical achievements, Zina has served as an ambassador for respected institutions, representing innovation, youth leadership, and academic excellence on national and international stages.

Despite being the youngest moderator / speaker at this year’s conference, Zina has already presented insights at various forums and published meaningful work that reflects her curiosity, discipline, and drive for continuous learning.

Sharing her vision for responsible and impactful AI, Zina notes:
“Innovation begins with understanding people’s real needs. When AI solutions improve human life, even in the smallest everyday details — that’s when technology becomes truly meaningful.”

Dr. Hikmat Beaini, President of the AI in Dubai Conference, expresses both pride and admiration:
“Zina represents the future we are all working toward a future led by young minds who combine creativity, discipline, and ethical thinking. Her presence reminds us that age is not a measure of influence. We are honored to welcome her among our distinguished speakers.”
