At Al Marwan Group, we believe that progress isn’t just measured in concrete projects but in meaningful connections, shared knowledge, and the wellbeing of our societies. That is why we are honored to sponsor the 14th International Government Communication Forum (IGCF 2025), a landmark event that aligns perfectly with our commitment to social responsibility, national development, and communication that uplifts.

What is IGCF 2025?

IGCF (International Government Communication Forum) is one of the region’s most significant gatherings of government, media, communications professionals, youth, and thought leaders. IGCF 2025 takes place 10–11 September 2025 at the Expo Centre Sharjah.

As in previous editions, this year’s conference is more than a stage it’s a platform for shaping tomorrow’s dialogues. The themes will span artificial intelligence, law and ethics, media innovation, youth communication, and more.

Prior to the main forum, there are several Pre-Forum Programmes, including:

• COMMS - targeted at students and graduates in media and communications faculties
• AI Skills Challenge for ages 10-16
• Global PR Challenge – Sharjah Edition, for students and emerging young talent

These programs reflect IGCF’s dedication to cultivating the next generation of communicators, thinkers, and change-makers.

Why IGCF 2025 Matters

IGCF 2025 is crucible for ideas with real world impact.

Scale & Reach: Leaders from the government, media, education, and technology sectors, as well as international institutions such as Microsoft and Purdue University, share insights and debate key issues.

High-Profile Leadership: The forum was inaugurated by His Highness Sheikh Dr. Sultan bin Muhammad Al Qasimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah. His Highness Sheikh Sultan bin Ahmed bin Sultan Al Qasimi, Deputy Ruler of Sharjah and Chairman of Sharjah Media Council, delivered the keynote address. Other participants include experts in food, health, education, technology, law and media from both local and international institutions.

Topical Relevance: In an era of accelerating technological change, global communications challenges, and shifting public expectations about transparency, ethics, youth engagement, IGCF’s themes are timely.

Al Marwan Group’s Sponsorship Role

As a sponsor of IGCF 2025, Al Marwan Group is proud to contribute to several of its most visible and high-impact sessions:

We are backing key discussions in the Government Communication Talks Hall, particularly those exploring intersections of AI, law and ethics, media, and youth communication. One such session is “Artificial Intelligence and Its Applications in Law”.

This sponsorship gives us visibility in sessions led by international speakers, legal and ethical debates, and youth skills programmes, areas that resonate deeply with our values.
