GISEC Global to Launch Cyber Diplomacy Forum in 2026 as Cybersecurity Moves Centre-Stage in Global Trade and Foreign Policy

Published

on

Abu Dhabi, UAE, 4th February 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, GISEC Global, the Middle East and Africa’s largest and most influential cybersecurity event, has announced the launch of the Cyber Diplomacy Forum, a new high-level platform debuting at GISEC Global 2026, reflecting the growing role of cybersecurity in foreign policy, international trade and national security decision-making.

The announcement follows an invitation-only Cyber Envoys’ Breakfast Briefing held in Abu Dhabi on 29 January, which convened more than 140 diplomats, including 32 ambassadors, trade attachés and senior representatives from international missions and business councils based in the UAE, such as Ambassador of India Deepak Mittal, European Union Ambassador Lucie Berger, and Egypt’s Ambassador, Essam Ashour. The closed-door briefing offered diplomatic stakeholders an early look at the Forum’s scope and objectives, ahead of its formal debut in 2026.

Developed in collaboration with the UAE Cybersecurity Council and powered by DAAKYI, the Cyber Diplomacy Forum is designed as a dedicated platform for governments, multilateral institutions and the private sector to address the increasingly cross-border nature of cyber risk. As cyber incidents continue to disrupt global supply chains, financial systems and critical infrastructure, the Forum positions cybersecurity as a strategic enabler of economic stability, trade confidence and international cooperation.

New for 2026, GISEC Global will also introduce the International Cyber Zone, bringing together more than 20 country pavilions – including Australia, Singapore, and South Korea – to showcase national cybersecurity capabilities, policy priorities and cross-border collaboration opportunities. The new zone reinforces the event’s role as a convening platform for government-led engagement, enabling countries to align policy, trade and innovation agendas within the global cybersecurity ecosystem.

At GISEC Global 2026, the Cyber Diplomacy Forum will focus on the intersection of cybersecurity and diplomacy, including the role of cyber policy in trade relations, public-private coordination on cross-border threats, and the development of shared approaches to cyber resilience in an increasingly fragmented digital landscape. The Forum will also see strong participation from Africa, with a delegation of government officials, ministers and cybersecurity companies from more than 12 African countries expected to attend. The delegation will be led by DAAKYI Secure Africa, headquartered in Ghana, reflecting the growing role of African governments in shaping global cyber policy and digital resilience frameworks.

The launch of the Cyber Diplomacy Forum reinforces GISEC Global’s evolving role as a global convening platform, bridging technology, policy, diplomacy, and international trade. By embedding cyber diplomacy into its 2026 programme, GISEC Global aims to facilitate sustained dialogue between governments and the private sector, supporting secure digital transformation worldwide.

Speaking on the announcement, Alex Nicholl, Vice President of New Industries at Dubai World Trade Centre, which organises GISEC Global, said: “Cybersecurity has moved beyond the IT

department and into the heart of diplomacy, trade and national security. The Cyber Diplomacy Forum reflects a clear shift in how governments are engaging with cyber risk – not as a technical issue, but as a strategic and economic one that requires coordinated international dialogue.”

The launch reinforces GISEC Global’s evolving role as a convening platform for policy, business and technology leaders, bringing diplomatic voices into structured dialogue with industry, investors and innovators. It also underscores the UAE’s positioning as a neutral hub for international engagement on emerging global challenges.

GISEC Global 2026 will take place from 5–7 May 2026 at Dubai Exhibition Centre (DEC), Expo City Dubai, bringing together policymakers, CISOs, technology leaders, startups and investors from over 160 countries.

2026 Loungewear Trend Forecast: Boundless Comfort, Stylish at Home —— EKOUAER Leads the New 2026 Loungewear Trend with the Philosophy of “Comfort Without Compromise”

Published

on

In the fast-paced modern lifestyle, loungewear has evolved beyond just sleepwear, becoming an expression of personal style and an all-day comfortable living attitude. As a pioneer in the loungewear industry, EKOUAER is leading the new comfort trends for the 2026 loungewear market with its unique perspective and exceptional products.

Shift in U.S. Consumer Demand: Loungewear Beyond the Bedroom
In recent years, U.S. consumers’ demand for loungewear has undergone significant changes. They are no longer satisfied with viewing loungewear merely as sleep attire but expect it to integrate into every aspect of daily life—whether relaxing at home, taking a walk outside, or attending small gatherings, loungewear should serve as an ideal choice for expressing personal style and comfort. This shift in consumer behavior has created new growth opportunities and design inspiration for the loungewear market.

Four Trends Defining the New 2026 Loungewear Wave

  1. All-day Comfort Takes Center Stage
    Advances in fabrics and tailoring enable loungewear to effortlessly transition from morning to night, meeting the demands of all-day scenarios. Consumers seek a wearing experience that offers both soft, enveloping comfort and a fresh, dry feel throughout the day.
  2. Hybrid Wear Drives Design Innovation
    The need for light outdoor activities, such as picking up packages or taking neighborhood walks, requires loungewear to balance privacy with a presentable appearance. Tailoring emphasizes “relaxed but not sloppy,” incorporating subtle details into loose-fitting designs to ensure effortless style during unexpected outings.
  3. Soft-touch Fabrics Continue to Evolve
    Beyond classic cotton and modal, materials like satin and silk blends are gaining popularity for their lightweight, breathable, and subtly lustrous qualities. These fabrics not only offer a luxurious feel but also enhance overall dressing sophistication.
  4. Relaxed but Polished Emerges as the New Aesthetic
    The new generation of loungewear moves away from an overly casual look. Through thoughtful details like refined collars, elegant piping, and well-placed prints, it achieves an understated elegance while ensuring absolute comfort.

EKOUAER: Responding to Trend Evolution with Product Innovation
Several of EKOUAER’s products exemplify these emerging trends:

Satin Pajama Set, crafted from ultra-soft silk-touch fabric, combines breathability and skin-friendly comfort. With its classic collar and button design, it strikes a perfect balance between comfort and minimalist style, seamlessly transitioning from casual lounging at home to gatherings with friends.

Silk Satin Pajama Set interprets the “relaxed yet refined” concept with its unique satin material and contrast piping details. The elastic waistband and side slit design ensure freedom of movement while adding a touch of understated sensuality.

Camisole Nightgown is designed for consumers seeking simplicity and coolness. Made from elastic, breathable fabric with a liberating camisole back, it can be worn as loungewear or paired with an outer layer for outdoor cool-weather outfits.

Bohemian Print Romper represents the epitome of Hybrid Wear. With its relaxed jumpsuit silhouette, vibrant prints, adjustable straps, and practical pockets, it effortlessly transitions across various scenarios—from home lounging and vacation wear to everyday outings—making it a versatile staple for simplifying your wardrobe.

Industry Recognition and Market Favor

EKOUAER’s leading designs are not only beloved by consumers but have also earned recognition from authoritative platforms. The brand’s products have been featured on lifestyle TV programs such as Good Night New York and Coffee with America, sharing the aesthetics of home comfort. They have also been highlighted in renowned fashion magazine ELLE. Additionally, EKOUAER’s collections have been consistently selected for the “Amazon Holiday Gift Guide,” receiving official endorsement as a top comfort choice, further solidifying their reputation as a preferred gift option.

In 2026, the loungewear industry will enter a new phase where “comfort and style coexist, functionality and scenarios merge.” EKOUAER remains committed to prioritizing consumer needs, driving continuous product innovation, and offering trend insights. By providing loungewear that combines comfort with thoughtful design, the brand not only meets user expectations but also solidifies its position as an industry trendsetter. Moving forward, EKOUAER will continue to delve into skin-friendly fabrics and versatile scenario-based designs, ensuring the experience of “Comfort Without Compromise” permeates every moment of life.

New Trends in Loungewear! No Compromise on Comfort, EKOUAER Unlocks Multi-Scenario Styling for Home Life

Published

on

As the boundaries between home, work, and socializing become increasingly blurred, a great set of loungewear has long surpassed the category of “pajamas.” It is not only a private fortress of comfort but also a versatile “uniform” that maintains composure and presentability for unexpected visitors, working from home, school runs, or even strolls around the neighborhood. By 2026, the ultimate proposition for loungewear lies in “full-scenario adaptability.”

How to translate this trend into reality and choose loungewear that truly fits the rhythm of modern life? The brand EKOUAER, with its philosophy of “Comfort. No Compromise.”, provides a clear four-dimensional selection guide and offers ready-to-own solutions.

Shopping Guide: Four Key Dimensions to Identify Your Ideal Loungewear

I. Fabric: Soft, Breathable, and Easy Care
High-quality loungewear starts with skin-friendly fabrics that balance breathability and easy maintenance. Popular materials like satin, silk, and knit offer a delicate touch, excellent drape, and good elasticity. The “machine-washable” design is especially recommended—effortlessly fitting into a fast-paced lifestyle while making comfort even more convenient.

II. Fit: Inclusive and Relaxed Yet Tailored
Fit determines both comfort and appearance. Too tight feels restrictive; too loose looks sloppy. The ideal design incorporates appropriate ease at the shoulders, waist, and legs—not overly snug yet naturally flattering. It accommodates different body types, ensuring ease and appropriateness whether at home or stepping out briefly.

III. Versatility: One Outfit, Multiple Uses, Seamless Transitions
Modern loungewear must adapt to various scenarios: maintaining a light formal touch for working from home, while staying neat and simple for school runs or quick outings. Opt for sets with clean designs and gentle colors to transition smoothly between occasions, reducing the need for frequent changes and truly embracing “home as life, stepping out with ease.”

IV. Value for Money: High Frequency, Broad Occasion Coverage
High value means high usage and wide applicability. A set of loungewear that doubles as sleepwear, homewear, and casual outerwear offers multiple functions for the price of one—perfectly aligning practicality and lifestyle aesthetics.

EKOUAER, Wearing CozyLove into Every Relaxing Moment
Based on the above dimensions and insights into modern life, EKOUAER has created multiple loungewear pieces that balance design and functionality:

  • Satin Pajama Set: Made from silky satin material, soft and skin-friendly. The short sleeves and relaxed pants design are perfect for relaxing at home, while the simple striped style can also handle brief outings directly.
  • Silk Satin Set: Features unique button designs that balance aesthetics with breastfeeding convenience, suitable for moms or users who value easy wearability.
  • Racerback Sleeveless Pajama Top: Made from stretchy, breathable fabric, the camisole cut with adjustable straps balances a sexy home style and potential for summer outerwear, offering versatile styling.
  • Floral Loose Jumpsuit: With vibrant prints, a loose fit, and lightweight fabric, it creates a bohemian-style piece suitable for home, vacation, or even maternity wear, achieving multi-scenario versatility.

These products collectively embody EKOUAER’s core strengths: pursuing ultimate skin-friendliness and easy care in fabrics, achieving a balance between relaxation and flattery in fit, and covering multiple needs from the private bedroom to semi-public outings in terms of scenarios. They truly exemplify the modern loungewear demand of “one outfit, multiple uses.”

Market Recognition, Witnessing Brand Strength
EKOUAER has not only won widespread consumer affection but has also been frequently recommended by media and platforms. Beyond being selected for the “Amazon Holiday Gift Guide,” it was featured earlier this year on the renowned lifestyle program “Lifestyle Today,” further confirming its exceptional balance between comfort and style.

When loungewear is no longer confined to the bedroom, when comfort and presentability no longer require a trade-off, EKOUAER is redefining the possibilities of modern loungewear with its steadfast proposition of “Comfort. No Compromise.” Whether you’re an urban woman pursuing daily relaxation, a mom balancing family and self, or a practical individual focused on life efficiency, you can find a choice that fits your needs at EKOUAER!
