After achieving the status of the region’s business hub, UAE is also on the road to become the leading player in the field of science & technology in the MENA region. For this purpose, UAE adopted its ICT (Information Communications Technology) policy in 1999 for transforming the desert country into one of the world’s most modern nations.
This policy is proving fruitful which is evident from several steps like the introduction of robotic police force in Dubai, operations of world’s first Autonomous Air Taxi in the same city and a city similar to Mars. But making such achievements need some homework where related events and exhibitions play important role. An important event that laid the ground for all such innovations is GITEX (Gulf Information Technology Exhibition).
This annual science and technology based exhibition started in 1996 and now it has achieved worldwide fame. Tech-related companies from all around the world showcase their new products and services to large number of attendants from around the world. Even tech giants have taken advantage of the presence of huge crowd related to technology field. An example is the release of Windows 7 by Microsoft in 2009 GITEX. Other companies like Google, Facebook and LinkedIn also use this forum for their regional operations.
GITEX is in fact the top tech event not only in the Middle East but also in the whole of Asia and Africa. Large number of regional and multinational companies acts as exhibitors in the event every year. The presence of world’s best companies in the exhibition accomplishes the requirement of most of the visitors of GITEX. In last year 2017, more than 140,000 visitors attended the event and more than 40% among them confirmed that they use GITEX solely for their complete shopping of electronics and gadgets. Over 85% visitors found the show according to or better than their expectations. Around 70% visitors spend several hours in the exhibition.
This clearly reveals the opportunities available in front of large number of people from around the world that participate in the event for purchasing purposes. Another thing that makes the situation even more interesting is that last year the numbers of exhibitors were around 60. It clearly means that if you are participating in the event, there will be less competition and extensive opportunities. One can easily understand the margin of profit achievable through one of the world’s most renowned events.
GITEX Shopper Spring 2018 will be held from 3rd to 7th of April 2018. The venue of the event is Shaikh Saeed Halls (Hall 1, Hall 2 and Hall 3). It is really a misfortune for any tech-related company to waste such an immense shopping opportunity that can not only bring instant capital but also worldwide exposure.
Now, less than a month is left in the beginning of this upcoming event and registration process is underway for interested companies. If you are willing to be a part of this largest tech-related event of the region, then you can contact Riz & Mona Consultancy to complete the registration process conveniently.
