UAE Advertising Industry Expands

The fast-expanding advertising industry, led by the UAE's economic boom, has experienced an average of 22 per cent growth for the past decade, officials say, reported Gulf News. Outdoor advertising grew at the fastest pace, while print advertising came second and advertisements on television came third, according to Abdul Rehman Falaknaz, president of Falak Holding and international expo consultants. The region's largest signage and outdoor publicity exhibition, Sign and Graphics 2008, brought together companies from North America, Europe, MENA region and South East Asia, and 63 UAE-based companies.
