In this edition, we dive into the dynamic world of Technology, Media, and Telecommunications (TMT) across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. TMT continues to play a vital role in positioning the region as an international business and social hub, driving significant growth and innovation.
Our focus in this Law Update is on the sector’s ongoing potential to advance and propel the region toward a more digital economy. We explore the benefits of embracing a digital transformation and how local authorities have responded by enhancing regulations to accommodate the evolving TMT landscape.
This edition covers a range of topics, including – the new Telecommunications & Information Technology Law in Saudi Arabia, the intricacies of trademarks in the Metaverse, and the legal challenges faced by the video game industry. Additionally, we take a regional perspective, discussing jurisdictions such as Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Oman, and Bahrain to provide a comprehensive understanding of the TMT landscape.
We hope you thoroughly enjoy this packed issue of Law Update, filled with captivating articles that address key legal issues within a vital sector for the region.
Read the full editionWith the 2011 IBA Conference in Dubai still fresh in our minds, we want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who attended our IBA events for taking the time out of your busy schedules to join us and for your continued support of the firm.
We are very proud of the success of each event we hosted and are delighted with the turnout at our ‘Arabian Nights’ cocktail reception held on the lawns of Jumeirah Beach Hotel, in front of the picturesque Burj Al Arab. With over 900 guests in attendance, predominately from international firms, the reception was a resounding success and was an excellent opportunity for our lawyers to develop fruitful relationships with lawyers from a range of jurisdictions across the world. The event also doubled as an opportunity for us to officially launch our new logo and brand – we do hope you like it. We are pleased to include a collage of some of the photographs taken on the evening for you to enjoy.
We look forward to building upon our existing relationships, and getting to know those of you who we met for the first time over the coming months. We will of course be in Dublin for next year’s IBA conference and look forward to catching up with many of you there.
Wishing you all the very best for a happy, safe and successful 2012.
