2/14/23, 1:24 PM CABSAT returns to Dubai World Trade Centre for 2023, on track to reveal the next frontier of content
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 USD 70 billion 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 and New Additions

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 leading 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.

Abdulnassir Ali, 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.”
