Thursday, April 26, 2012:
The manufacturing industry in the Middle East is renowned for upholding superior quality standards and setting stringent process regulations. Hence, the constant desire to ensure operational excellence facilitates the use of best-in-class equipment and solutions. The region is gradually altering its image and emerging on the global manufacturing landscape as a non-oil and gas economy. Over the years, while the Middle East equipment supply landscape has evolved, only select global manufacturers have been successful in surviving the gauntlet, thereby witnessing sustained growth in the Middle East.

Efforts have been made to develop a more diversified industrial base in the region, due to which sectors such as metals, food and beverages, chemicals, real estate, and tourism, amongst others, have benefited. In addition, companies are now adopting evolving technology paradigms, best practices, and industry standards in areas such as market and growth leadership, customer value enhancement, and customer service.
Frost & Sullivan, a Global Growth Partnership Company, in its endeavour to bring forth key challenges, growth impediments, opportunities and technology adoption in the manufacturing space will be hosting the Middle East Industrial Technology Leadership Summit, at Beach Rotana, Abu Dhabi, The UAE, on May 27, 2012. The theme of the Summit this year will be 'Emergence of the Middle East as a Manufacturing Hub: Evolving Practices and Best-in-class Solutions.'
The Summit, besides bringing forth thought-provoking sessions, will end with Frost & Sullivan recognising companies and individuals that have pushed the boundaries of excellence - rising above the competition and demonstrating outstanding performance across the Middle East - through the 'Frost & Sullivan Industrial Excellence Awards Banquet'. The segments across which companies will be honoured include Automation and Control Solutions, Pumps, Valves, Compressors, Process Transmitters, and Industrial Services.
According to Niju V, Deputy Director, Automation and Electronics Practice, South Asia, Middle East and North Africa, Frost & Sullivan, "At a time when the global investors' eyes are firmly set on the Middle East manufacturing industry, the Frost & Sullivan Industrial Excellence Awards will highlight the achievements and exemplary performance of individual companies from this region. These Awards will raise the bar for competitors, as they strive to emulate the performance of award winners and aim for excellence. Frost & Sullivan also believes that these Awards is an attempt to place the Middle East as a region that is second to none in scaling the acme of excellence."
The Summit will see participation from leading Product/Solution/Component Providers, End Users, Leading EPCs, LSTKs and Systems Integrators, Industry Associations, Standards Organisations, Government Entities, Regulatory Organisations, and Investment Houses from the region.
This powerful Event promises to be a strategic networking platform for the attending delegates, wherein they will have the opportunity to gather information on the evolving technology paradigms, investment climate, manufacturing-friendly initiatives, best practices, and industry standards.
Megawhat-H20 and Gulf Industry are the media partners supporting the event.
