Winning an impressive 18 out of 36 awards, Flip Media also received the award's highest honor, the Sheikh Hamdan Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Award for 'Website of the Year' for the Mercedes-Benz B Class website: www.mb-me.com/bclass which was also the winning site in the Travel, Tourism & Transportation category. Flip Media took Gold, Silver and Bronze awards outright in three categories - Corporate, Real Estate and Travel, Tourism & Transportation, and received awards in virtually every other major category.

The UAE Web Awards are dedicated to honoring talented web developers and designers in the UAE and to safeguard the integrity of their Intellectual Property Rights (IPR). Held under the patronage of H.H. Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Deputy Ruler of Dubai and Minister of Finance and Industry, the awards were jointly organized by BSA and the UAE Web Awards Committee, in co-operation with The Lebanese Canadian Bank, Microsoft Corporation and with the support of Dubai Internet City.

Dinesh Lalvani, Founder and Creative Director of Flip Media said

'The UAE Web Awards have been a tremendous success and we are now looking forward to further success at the Pan Arab Web Awards. Everyone at Flip Media is justifiably proud that we have been recognized for the quality work that we do. The diversity of the winning sites show that whilst we have consistently produced award-winning creative work for well-known brands in the Middle East, such as Emaar, Mercedes-Benz, MMI and Dubai Islamic Bank, we have also produced some outstanding work for smaller organizations and individuals, including two sites that we produced voluntarily for charity.'

All winners have qualified for the Pan Arab Web Awards 2006 to be held during April in Jordan and will represent the UAE at the event. The Pan Arab Web Awards 2006 will host the winners from participating Arab countries and will be held under the patronage of His Majesty King Abdullah bin Al Hussein, King of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.
