Representatives of the free zone, media firms, and government entities, came together to learn from each other about the work being done by Abu Dhabis media industry.
H.E. Maryam Eid AlMheiri, CEO of Media Zone Authority Abu Dhabi and twofour54, said: Our region has one of the most youthful populations on the planet, which presents a huge opportunity to media firms from around the world to meet the growing appetite of Arab millennials for quality content.
It is also vital that we preserve and promote our language for future generations, which is why I was proud to see so many Abu Dhabi media firms showcasing their quality Arabic content at Connect.
Media Company, Vice Arabia, premiered their new Arabic short film documentary Tal El Rob directed by Bahraini Director Razan Alzayani.

As well as showcasing their content, attendees were also able to network with public sector entities focused on youth and education.
