Next year's DEAL expo is to offer a host of new attractions, making it even more pertinent to the region's amusement industry, according to the show's organisers.
"The Middle East and North Africa have almost overtaken the US as a major centre for family entertainment," said Abdul Rehman Falaknaz, president of International Expo-Consults. "The opening of more shopping malls, family entertainment centres, bowling lanes, theme parks and many more attractions all point to growing interest in entertainment for all.
"This increased demand has translated into increased interest in DEAL and we expect more than 200 companies from 300 countries to present their products and services with us in 2010. We believe in constant innovation of our shows and next year’s expo will see the addition of new and improved elements for the benefit of both exhibitors and visitors."
Seminar series will be doubled and cover a two-day workshop offering regional and international business insight; a new fast-track entry system will also be offered for exhibitors keen to lock in their DEAL participation before October of this year and early bird discounts are also being offered to these companies.
Meanwhile, online registration for visitors will speed up the entry process, meaning visitors can make the most of their valuable time at the show and a new product demonstration area will ensure that exhibitors and visitors get more from the show and a powerful platform to showcase unique selling points of products.
Deal 2010 is set to take place April 25-27, 2010 at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre.
