Under this year's theme—"Broadband and Beyond - Strategic Partnership for Growth in the Region"—Arabcom aims to provide a comprehensive review of the region's telecommunications industry, as well as help in laying out a strategic road map for its future development.
"The Middle East is currently experiencing substantial 3G service growth. This growth is creating many new commercial opportunities and is empowering service providers and governments to deliver voice and data services and products to previously disconnected communities, as well as urban areas,"
said Jihad Srage, vice president - Middle East, North Africa and Central Asia for Qualcomm.
"Capitalizing on these opportunities requires close cooperation among the region's operators, technology providers, device manufacturers, regulators, applications developers, content providers and other key industry players. Arabcom provides a great platform to discuss these and other important telecom issues, and Qualcomm is a proud sponsor of the event."
"Through its educational sessions and exhibitions, Arabcom 2009 will spotlight many important telecommunications topics covering new markets, technology innovations and regulatory issues," said Mrs. Katia Tayar - Founder and President of Arabcom group.
"Qualcomm continues to lead the way with the new cutting-edge wireless technologies and services and this is absolutely vital for operators to maintain their high growth levels in the Middle East and surrounding Regions. We are delighted at their participation in the 11th edition of Arabcom International Telecom Summit in Lebanon."
