preferences of diverse audiences or embracing digitisation, our emirate remains a key
player in the future of media innovation. Our strategic partnership with CABSAT serves
our vision to secure Dubai’s position as the capital of Arab Media and attract
transformative players to the region, in line with the Dubai Economic Agenda ‘D33’
