For those in the media and broadcast space in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), CABSAT is the go-to event. While bigger shows like NAB or IBC may be further afield, CABSAT offers a more local but still highly relevant space to connect, explore trends, and dive into what’s shaping the industry.
A few key themes kept coming up in conversations and sessions:
AI & Automation – Still hot topics, with lots of focus on how to work smarter, not harder.
Efficiency & Cost Pressure – Budgets are tight, so doing more with less is a common challenge.
Integration & Flexibility – Everyone’s trying to make their tech stack play nicely together, and stay agile in a fast-moving world.
Changing Media Habits – Audiences are shifting fast, and companies are working hard to keep up.
While visitor numbers at big industry shows have been flat or even declining in recent years, what really stood out at CABSAT was the value of in-person connection. Real conversations, trust-building, spontaneous ideas—things that don’t happen over email or Teams calls.
For us, events like this are not just about tech (though we love the tech!)—they're about people, relationships, and laying the groundwork for what comes next.
Thanks to everyone who made time to connect—we’re excited to keep the momentum going!
