Abraham in Tech: The Abraham Accords’ Technology Cooperation Platform at VivaTech 2026
Hall 7.1 – Booth H12
Making its debut in Paris during the 10th edition of VivaTech 2026, and initiated by Elnet, Abraham in Tech will bring together startups, investors, researchers, corporations, institutions, and public leaders from Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Central Asia, and North America around a shared objective: exploring how innovation and economic cooperation can help address the major challenges of the 21st century.
At a time when artificial intelligence, energy transition, food security, water management, health technologies, and digital infrastructure are reshaping global economic balances, Abraham in Tech aims to create a platform for dialogue, investment, and cooperation among some of the world's leading innovation ecosystems.
Inspired by the spirit of the Abraham Accords, the initiative promotes a project-driven approach based on entrepreneurship, research, innovation, and investment as tools for bringing societies closer together. It is built upon a simple conviction: today’s greatest challenges transcend borders and require greater cooperation, innovation, and knowledge sharing in the service of peace and prosperity.
