Khalid Al Hammadi, Senior Vice President of DXB LIVE said: “2023 was an exceptional year by any

measure, resulting in unprecedented results. From our pivotal role in shaping numerous global events
such as COP28 and the World Radiocommunication Conference – ITU WRC 2023, to extending our

integrated services beyond the UAE borders, we embarked on a journey of expansion into growing

markets like Saudi Arabia and Africa, where the technology, entertainment, sports, and festival sectors

are experiencing remarkable growth. We look forward to fostering new partnerships with esteemed

global entities operating in event organisation and management. Currently, we are exploring
opportunities for expansion in Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Oman and we remain committed to forging

alliances with leading international event management companies to drive that growth,” he added. “Our

three decades of experience has allowed us to build and grow new business partnerships, bolstering

Dubai’s reputation as a global hub for events and strengthening DWTC’s position in the city’s events

ecosystem. Our strategy in 2024 and beyond is to continue to develop our team, enhance our

capabilities, and create rewarding employment opportunities for Emiratis in the event management
industry.”
