About Black Hat MEA
Black Hat MEA is delivered by Informa and Tahaluf at the Riyadh Exhibition & Convention Centre in Malham, combining a briefings programme with a large vendor exhibition and a busy recruitment floor.
Security stands are technical: live threat demos, SOC-style screen walls, private briefing rooms and controlled acoustics matter more than decorative build.
Halls are dense and dark by design, so lighting and screen brightness are planned as part of the stand, not added at the end.

Frequently asked questions
When is Black Hat MEA held?
The 2026 edition runs 1–3 December 2026 at the Riyadh Exhibition & Convention Centre, Malham. Later editions appear here once the organiser confirms them.
Can you support live demo infrastructure?
We provide the physical environment — power, data routing, mounts, screens and lighting. Your team supplies the software and demo content.
Do you build private briefing rooms into stands?
Yes, and we plan them early because they affect circulation and the open-floor demo area.
What stand sizes do you handle?
From shell-scheme upgrades to large island builds, including double-decker structures where the hall permits.
Are you affiliated with Black Hat MEA?
No. We are an independent contractor working for exhibitors.
