Ms. Mona Al Marri, Vice Chairperson and Managing Director of the Dubai Media Council, said that, “The Egyptian media sector is a key player in the Arab media landscape. This agreement is a significant step towards stronger cooperation in developing each other’s media capabilities. It represents the convergence of our vision on the importance of joint efforts to build new pathways that can contribute to the advancement of Arab media. We look forward to this MoU being the start of a fruitful partnership that accelerates the development of the sector at both bilateral and regional levels.”
