About the event

The growth in telco and media services in the Middle East continues with a steady stride – the number of IPTV homes in the Middle East and North Africa is on the rise – according to Informa Telecoms & Media – subscriber numbers are predicted to undergo an almost ten-fold increase in the forecast period, to reach 1.6 million by 2014 – giving a 2.1% penetration rate. In terms of Pay TV markets overall the regional total is predicted to increase to 11 million pay TV homes by 2014. This gives a 15% pay TV penetration rate.
