To be held from March 8-10 at the Dubai World Trade Centre, CABSAT 2016 is
expected to welcome more than 15,000 regional and international visitors
CABSAT, one of the leading platforms for the broadcast, production, content delivery, digital media and satellite sectors across the Middle East, Africa and South Asia, will celebrate its 22nd edition this March by continuing to drive disruptive innovation and monetisation opportunities across the MENA film and audio entertainment media market.
In a region where more than 900 free-to-air (FTA) channels serve the Arab world, satellite distribution still accounts for over 80% of the regional market. However, despite being relatively new options, IPTV and OTT already contribute nearly 20% of regional content delivery platforms — providing opportunities for broadcasters and pay-TV operators to monetise content via an emerging post-TV market.
Trixie LohMirmand, senior vice-president, Exhibitions & Events manager of show organiser DWTC, said: “The accelerated adoption of mobile technology across the region has created tremendous and transformative opportunities across multiple media platforms. As international media companies and investors consider their global expansion strategies, MENA warrants new consideration and CABSAT provides a strategic entry-point.”
With more than 950 local, regional and international exhibitors at CABSAT 2016, the event will also see the debut of Content Marketplace, a dedicated content market for TV and film content creators, production houses and studios, distributors of content, producers, editors and advertising houses.
SDMC will attend CABSAT 2017. Providing the latest OTT 4G products to customers.
