SARAJEVO, October 11 (FENA) - The Global Media Congress 2023 (GMC) is a major international event that this year, for the second time, will gather media institutions from different parts of the world to explore the future of the global media industry and its vital role in advancing sustainable development around the world.
Global Media Congress will take place from 14-16 November 2023, organized by ADNEC Group in strategic partnership with Emirates News Agency (WAM) and held under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Vice President and Deputy Prime Minister of the UAE, and Minister of the Presidential Court.
The inaugural edition in 2022 was a resounding success, attracting over 13,656 visitors during the three-day event. The participation of 192 international media companies and institutions from 42 countries, along with over 1,200 media sector pioneers, experts, and specialists, enriched the discourse. Remarkably, the event facilitated more than 10 cooperation agreements between local and international media organizations and witnessed the launch of groundbreaking media innovations.
Kasyan Araks, Deputy Director of Armenpress News Agency, said that Armenpress News Agency had the privilege to participate in the first Global Media Congress in Abu Dhabi.
''It was a very interesting place to discuss the ideas about the development of media as well as the challenges that we are facing today, but as you know every challenge is an opportunity so we discussed how we can use these new solutions to make our media more advanced in the 21st century,'' said Araks.
She pointed out that the Congress was an interesting place not only to meet old media partners and discuss future collaborations but also to find new ones and make connections.
Martin Alvarez, Editor-in-Chief of the Cuban state news agency Prensa Latina, said that after the successful first edition last year, the second Global Media Congress in November in Abu Dhabi will continue to shape the industry toward a brighter future.
