CABSAT 2023, the flagship event for broadcast, satellite, content creation, production, distribution, and digital media and
entertainment industries, is set to attract more than 14,000 visitors, 340 exhibitors, and 120 speakers, and have more than
120 countries represented when it is held from May 16 to 18, 2023, at the Dubai World Trade Centre.

With the Middle East media and entertainment market expected to grow at a CAGR of 12.79% over the forecast period
2021 -- 2026; the region remains one of the most appealing for the filmed content, broadcast, and satellite industries. At
present, the region is rapidly transitioning from a content consumption market to a content creation hub. More regional
productions are moving into the entertainment and distribution market, which is expected to be worth nearly $70bn by
2026.

CABSAT is working with the most innovative content creators, producers, broadcast technology providers, as well as
satellite distribution and content delivery companies to identify common traits of success across all verticals that can serve
as the blueprint for future growth. The previous edition's highlights included the presence of representatives from Twitter,
Metta, Dubai Media City, Saudi Media Rating Company, and Disney Plus.

CABSAT 2023 will welcome back the Content Congress, which will celebrate and engage with the creator economy, and
the SATEXPO Summit, where leading industry experts can discuss how sustainable space exploitation can be
spearheaded. Similarly, NextUp, which also returns in 2023, offers a platform for start-up innovators in the media,
entertainment, and satellite industries, while NextGen Content features an exclusive viewing area for the region's biggest
content buyers to witness the work of the region's best content creators in innovative new formats.

Another significant feature of the 2023 event is the co-location with Integrate Middle East, which is expected to become the
major forum and sourcing platform for bringing together technology leaders and integrated solution buyers in the pro-AV
industry.

The response to the new event has been extremely positive, and industry leaders such as Epson, Provision AVL, Infiled,
and Christie have already committed to exhibiting and demonstrating their innovative solutions, the organisers said.

AbdulnassirAli, Regional Sales Manager Visual Instruments and Professional Display, Epson Middle East, said: "The
demand for pro display solutions is growing exponentially in the Middle East and Epson is proud to showcase our products,
which have been deployed by some of the leading entertainment organisations in the region, during the first-ever edition of
Integrate Middle East.

"From education and art galleries to digital signage and corporate events, our projectors are a smart and advanced
investment offering high quality, efficiency, and reliability. Moreover, our sustainable solutions can help meet the eco-
credentials of your business, without compromising on the powerful and vivid images produced."

Dubai-based AV devices and accessories distributor Provision AVL will also join the debut edition of the event. Kevin
