Comprising 12 different categories in addition to special honours, the prestigious awards recognised excellence in Arab journalism.

"Our association with the Arab Media Forum and Dubai Press Club reflects our firm conviction in the active role played by the media towards the progress of the region as a whole. We will work closely with the DPC to further train financial and business media and help them to reach international reporting standards. As Dubai Group we are determined to utilise this platform to create opportunities for exchange of information and international best practices".
