the AV industry in a positive way.

growth across MEA, requiring automated solutions in the AV industry.
The market for AV products and services in the Middle East is currently worth
almost US$ 3 billion, having grown by 76% from 2012 to 2016
Demand for AV Technology in Saudi Arabia is on the rise with the launch of the General Entertainment Authority (GEA), which is responsible for the
nation’s expanding entertainment sector

investing in the audio-visual solutions to enhance the visitor experience.
