CABSAT marks its 30th anniversary with return of

prestigious MENA Co-Production Salon

By Middle East News 247 April 24, 2024

CABSAT, the flagship event for broadcast, media, satellite, and entertainment industries in the Middle East
th
and North Africa (MENA) region, celebrates its 30 anniversary by continuing its partnership with HConsult,
a leading content market specialist in the Arabic-speaking MENA region, to host MENA Co-Production Salon.
The exclusive gathering, scheduled from May 21 to 23 2024 at the Dubai World Trade Centre, is poised to
elevate the collaborative spirit that has long been a hallmark of the annual event.

The Co-Production Salon, which is located within a specially designed VIP lounge near the Content
Congress area, is an exclusive, invitation-only lounge that assembles the region’s most prestigious

production houses, OTT platforms, TV networks, content investors, and brand representatives. It serves as a
vital platform for exploring co-production and investment opportunities, aimed at creating internationally

viable TV and film content.

2023: A Retrospective Look

Last year’s Co-Production Salon was highly sought-after edition, with more than 250 companies applying for

entry. However, due to stringent participation criteria and the intimate nature of the event, only about a
quarter of applicants were admitted. The attendees had the opportunity to participate in an average of 15
high quality meetings each, resulting in numerous collaborative investment deals in content production both
within and outside the MENA region.
