CABSAT returns to Dubai World Trade
Centre for 2023, on track to reveal the next
frontier of content
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 over
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 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,
