The Professional Communication Corporation (Nedaa), the exclusive secure network provider for the Government of Dubai, has announced that Dubai has been awarded the bid to host the prestigious Critical Communications World (CCW) conference and exhibition in 2024. This globally recognized event brings together key players from the critical communications sector, fostering collaboration and knowledge sharing among mission-critical and business-critical end-users, manufacturers, and suppliers.
Dubai emerged as an outstanding candidate in a highly competitive field of renowned cities and business hubs from around the world. With over 20 years of serving the sector, CCW offers in-depth focus forums, a leading exhibition showcasing worldwide brands, and a conference program led by industry experts. This event acts as a global networking hub where attendees gain inspiration, enhance their knowledge, and establish valuable connections. It facilitates collaboration across borders and provides a platform to explore the latest technology, source innovative products, and forge new business relationships.
The eagerly awaited CCW 2024 will take place from 14th-16th May at the Dubai World Trade Centre, with Nedaa serving as the Host Operator in collaboration with Dubai’s Department of Economy and Tourism (DET). Previously held in Madrid, Vienna, and Helsinki, CCW’s choice of Dubai reflects the sustained growth of the industry in the region.
Mansoor Bu Osaiba, CEO of Nedaa, expressed pride and privilege in being involved with CCW, emphasizing the event’s influential role in advancing the critical communications sector. Dubai’s focus on innovation, technology, and strategic partnerships, coupled with Nedaa’s leadership in the field, sets the stage for CCW 2024 to be a catalyst for collaboration and development. The preparations for the upcoming edition aim to establish a benchmark for future events.
Ahmed Al Khaja, CEO of Dubai Festivals and Retail Establishment, highlighted Dubai’s collaborative efforts across various entities to secure the hosting rights for CCW 2024. The city’s robust business events capabilities, tourism facilities, and commitment to the critical communications sector’s development played a crucial role in the successful bid. Dubai aims to leverage this opportunity to further drive innovation and provide a platform for global industry experts to share knowledge and network.
The Critical Communications Association (TCCA), the organization leading the global development and promotion of standardized critical communications solutions, has been instrumental in organizing CCW. Having previously organized Critical Communications MENA (CCMENA) in Dubai, the TCCA believes that Dubai, with its track record of innovation and business-friendly environment, is an excellent choice for CCW 2024.
Kevin Graham, CEO of TCCA, commended Dubai’s commitment to innovation and bringing together global experts to share best practices and showcase cutting-edge solutions. Hosting CCW in Dubai is expected to further solidify the city’s position on the forefront of critical communications and drive essential reforms benefiting the industry and the world.
