Power Gems takes in CABSAT 2015 during Dubai visit
Patrick McGuane’s recent visit to Dubai saw Power Gems’ debut at CABSAT 2015, the largest broadcast trade show in the Middle East, Africa and South Asia. Our Director of Sales & Marketing joined an estimated 13,000 media industry professionals who attended the event held over three days (10-12 March) at the World Trade Centre.
“Dubai has a lot to keep you busy – with so much to see you need to be here for all three days,” said Patrick.
“My time
was spent catching up with customers, industry colleagues and new contacts made at the show. It was great to meet local rental houses and distribution companies based in Dubai.”
“We had some fascinating discussions about how markets differ, and how the Power Gems range of electronic high speed ballasts can help end users overcome the unique challenges of shooting in the Middle East and surrounding areas.”
“CABSAT served to reinforce the importance of Dubai as a much-needed gateway to growing our business across the region.”
CABSAT is the third largest show of its kind globally, and the only one in the MEASA region to focus on broadcast and satellite equipment. Patrick met many of the people and businesses behind the new product launches for the broadcast, production, content delivery, digital media and satellite sectors.
More than 900 exhibitors from 60 countries, makes for a lot of walking and sometimes you need to take a seat. Here Patrick is in good company with Mr Badi Maani of Kuwaiti-based Domino Trading Ltd.
CABSAT is well-established, having been running for 20 years, but this was the first time has Power Gems attended. Given our experience, Dubai is certain to be a hot destination in the coming years.
