Majed Al Suwaidi, Managing Director, Dubai Studio City, said: This region has seen a substantial growth for the demand of films and production. Dubai has succeeded to become a film hub and we are honoured to have contributed to that vision. Our success has been a result of the solid ecosystem that have cultivated comprising of one of the largest regional sound-stages, world-class production services, cutting-edge facilities and unique training opportunities for local and international talent.
Al Suwaidi added: Digitisation, be it of content, services or production is redefining go-to-market strategies and is changing customer demand. For example, it is leading to the emergence of a whole new breed of ‘cloudbased’, ‘mobile-first’ start-ups, plus the set-up of regional offices for international players and new kind of platforms.
