Beauty World Middle East and Wellness & Spa Exhibition 2013 Beauty World Middle East and Wellness & Spa Exhibition is the largest international trade fair for beauty products, hair, fragrances and wellbeing in the Middle East and one of the top 5 exhibitions worldwide. Seventeen years old and still going strong, the exhibition has played a vital role in the growth and development of the industry, with a solid representation of global products and brands. Mobile Advertising Set To Explode Across MENA Region The BPG Group , one of the largest marketing solutions groups in the MENA region and Deloitte Middle East have said they expect mobile advertising in the region to increase significantly in the second half of this year and into 2014. That is according to insights from local and regional brands and the findings of Deloitte’s most recent report ’Technology, Media & Telecommunications Predictions 2013 Middle East’. Social Media - The Case For The Contact Centre “Many organizations in the region are excited about the self-promotion potential of Social Media and in particular how the medium can help to engage an audience and expand their customer base. The corporate Facebook pages, Twitter accounts and so on are in effect extensions of the main web site and as such are used to post news, run competitions and other promotions, and update customers on new products and key services. All well and good,” says Dominick Keenaghan, president of MECC ’13 show organizers INSIGHTS, “but there’s another key issue as well to consider. Customers tend not to use a company’s own Social Media pages when recording their opinions, experiences and complaints. So, whilst marketing can continue to leverage Social Media channels for its purposes, any fully-form ed corporate strategy still needs to address customer comments and complaints, ongoing customer services issues and even possible upsell and cross-sell opportunities.

Sharjah Fountain brings ancient Islamic art to life
The Sharjah Fountain at Al Majaz Waterfront brought the ancient Islamic art of Ebru to life with a never seen before art performance by acclaimed Ebru artist Garip Ay from Istanbul. An art form dating back to the 10th century, Ebru can perhaps be best described as painting on water. Also known as Water Marbling, this unique method of painting happens in a tray of water (the canvas) where special inks are "swirled and crafted" to produce fascinating works, which are then, traditionally, transferred to paper. The results of this process are unique with no two designs ever exactly the same again.
