Cabsat

After consultation with our key stakeholders, we would like to share with you that a special edition of CABSAT – the region’s leading media, entertainment and satellite event, shall take place on 26 – 28 October 2021 at Dubai World Trade Centre to explore exciting synergies with EXPO 2020.

Besides a special focus on the SATEXPO Summit with a wider content offering, CABSAT announces the launch of “NextGen Content” in partnership with Dubai Studio City, a new marketplace to buy, sell or co-produce TV and FILM content for the Arabic market.

We look forward to your continued support and welcoming you to Dubai in October this year.

“As an increasingly global hub for cinema production, Dubai Studio City looks forward to welcoming the broadcast community at what promises to be a unique, well-timed platform for discussion and innovation. The launch of NextGen Content at CABSAT 2021 in October will deliver unprecedented strategic opportunities to the broadcast industry, creating new areas of content collaboration that will contribute to the growth of the emirate’s creative economy.”

Hosting the event in October will provide an ideal platform for greater collaboration and international cooperation. It will create new opportunities for content creation and contribute to the vision of our leaders to transform the emirate into the world’s leading creative economic capital.”
