Known as the ultimate destination for consumer electronics, GITEX Shopper & Consumer Electronics Expo is one of the highly anticipated events in Dubai. Showcasing a wide selection of goods, it is perhaps the largest gathering of ICT suppliers and retailers from across the globe, selling high quality and world renowned consumer electronics. Attracting a large audience from across the world, the event is frequented by technology enthusiasts, IT professionals, regional traders and students.
Acclaimed for its latest technology innovations, the atmosphere of the event is described as fast paced, where consumers stroll along from one stall to another searching for the best shopping deals. As the biggest electronics and consumer IT show in the Middle Eastern region, it comes as no surprise that previous shows have produced record-breaking sales, coupled with an unprecedented number of visitors from over 150 nationalities.
Taking place at the prestigious Airport Expo Dubai, the 2011 edition will be held from 8th to 15th of October and is set to attract a larger audience than the previous shows. The 31st GITEX Shopper & Consumer Electronics Expo falls under the Gitex Technology Week, deemed as the biggest ICT event in the technology sector hosted by the Dubai World Trade Centre. Offering visitors a glimpse into experiential marketing, Gitex Technology Week was founded to create awareness and instigate more commercial activities to one of the growing ICT markets in the world, the Middle East. By establishing GITEX Shopper & Consumer Electronics Expo, Gitex Technology Week hopes to empower retailers, manufacturers and distributors to explore and discover new opportunities in the field of technology. Today, GITEX Shopper & Consumer Electronics Expo has paved the way to a new dimension in the ICT arena, by converging gadgetry and high-street technology into the world of business.
Canon, Acer, Nokia, Microsoft, Lenovo, Sony, Dell, Samsung, HP and SandDisk are among the global brands that have confirmed their presence at the show, offering consumers a perfect blend of communication, technology and entertainment products. Regional retailers and distributors include Jackys Electronics, Plug-Ins, Jumbo Electronics, iSTYLE, Klick, E4U, CompuME, E-Max and BDL.
