ADIPEC Breakfast: Connecting French Energy Leaders 2026 in Abu Dhabi

About the ADIPEC Breakfast 2026

ADIPEC week brings energy professionals from around the world to Abu Dhabi, and this breakfast is designed to make the most of that moment for the French energy community. Organised by CCI France UAE together with EVOLEN, ‘Connecting French Energy Leaders’ is a morning networking event that links French energy companies with players across the UAE energy sector.

It takes place at Relax@12, on the 12th floor of Aloft Abu Dhabi, a short distance from ADNEC, which makes it easy to fit in before heading to the exhibition halls.

What to expect

According to the official programme, the morning runs as follows:

• Registration and networking
• A welcome address
• Introductions from the event sponsors
• Open discussion and further networking

The sponsors are Valsem Group, Accuracy, Apave and TotalEnergies. TotalEnergies is represented by Moufdi Chikh, UAE Country Chair. The published schedule covers 8:00am to 10:00am, with the event listed as running until midday, so there should be time for relaxed conversation after the formal part.

Who it is for

This breakfast is aimed at professionals in the energy sector, particularly:

• French energy companies active in, or looking at, the UAE market
• UAE energy companies interested in French partners, technology and services
• Consultants, engineers and advisers working in oil, gas and the wider energy transition
• Members of CCI France UAE’s Energy Committee

If you are in Abu Dhabi for ADIPEC, it is a focused, efficient way to meet the French-speaking energy community in one place.

How to attend

Registration is via the official CCI France UAE event page linked on this listing. The price is AED 260 including VAT, and the event is free for members of the chamber’s Energy Committee. The registration deadline is 2 November at 12:00.

Good to know
