DCG (Dubai Computer Group) is scheduled to hold a first-ever two-day Trade Fair at the Grand Excelsior Hotel (Old Dhow Palace) in Dubai on the 14th and 15th of May this year. The fair will include 30 reseller exhibitor booths where they will exhibit their range of products and services. DCG expects a large scale attendance from resellers from within Dubai as well as IT traders  from the other Emirates and neighbouring GCC countries.
The Fair is being organized to build up further momentum in the reseller market and as a show of strength of the Dubai based IT reseller community. DCG would also like to see a great deal of networking within the IT community at the event, Shailendra Rughwani, MD, Experts Computers and President, DCG said. “We want to make sure that members understand each other’s’ products and businesses while improving connectivity between our members and eventually expand the scope of business between us,” Shailendra added.
Dubai is widely recognized as the IT Hub in the region and has played a central role in IT exports across the region. The Fair will play a key role in endorsing the fact that the reseller community in Dubai continues to remain vibrant and strong to address the needs of the MEA IT market.
DCG expects a large turnout of IT Business companies to attend the two day show that will also include seminars around Management and key industry topics of relevance to the channel. The event will also include a free health check-up kiosk for attendees and there would be participation from credit insurance companies and the Press as well.
DCH hopes to see the event become an annual showcase. “However our future plans depend largely on how successful this year’s trade fair is,” Shailendra explained, adding, “Being the first event, we tried to restrict the number of exhibitors to 30 but we will be expanding the event in years to come.”
The Trade Fair is one of the highlights of the year’s schedule of events lined up by DCG including sporting events for the benefit of its partners.
