 Hello and welcome to Capacity Middle East Extra, powered by JSA. I'm Dean Perine, coming to you live from just outside the Almira ballroom in the foyer of the Grand Hyatt, Dubai. And I am here with Mr. David Tram. David, it is a pleasure to see you, as always, on JSA TV, powered by JSA. So, David, why don't you tell us a little bit about yourself and about what you do with Capacity? Yeah, definitely. So I'm a conference producer of Capacity Middle East 2023. And we've brought together a 70-plus speaker program as well, including those that are featuring at Capacity Middle East Extra, powered by JSA, of course. So it's been an absolute privilege to put together the content and networking program for the event as well, and to see a convergence of community, of regional, as well as international stakeholders, all come here at the Grand Hyatt in Dubai and in a wonderful setting, of course. Yeah, and I'll tell you what an event it is so far. And we are really just day one. Is it just day one? Because I have seen nothing but a constant flow of people in and out of the foyer since I sat down here just earlier this morning. But why don't you tell us a little bit about what your expectation is of the event? Because I can tell you this. I've been to a number of events already this year, and this is one of the biggest I bet. Yeah, I think expectations were really quite high, actually, back of a really successful 2022 event as well. And we felt that we'll build a factor around the event as we return from the pandemic. This is a meetings-orientated event as well, with a strong component of content in terms of that intersection as the Middle East, as that kind of meeting in the middle between the East meets West philosophy. So interconnectivity is an absolutely important part of the Middle East ecosystem. And that's kind of the reason why they're here today, really, to form partnerships, to develop digital ecosystems. And yeah, that's been a really, really short part of that. So do we have a read on the actual numbers so far of the event? Do you have some numbers to share with us? Yeah, I just got a quick one there. So we've got 2,271 attendees, 82 stands, 106 meeting rooms. David, that's fantastic. 17 meeting tables and 12 premium meeting lounges. It just means that there's so many points of presence around the event in which you can have those meetings, have those important discussions. From a branding perspective, from those taking part, they really get the chance to sell their products and solutions to the customers that really matter to them. Yeah, and such a variety too of sponsors at the event. Everything from the network people, the equipment manufacturers, they're all here. So David, why don't you tell our viewers a little bit more about the capacity agenda, things that you guys have coming up. Give us a peek around the next corner. Yeah, definitely. So Subsea, for instance, we're doing a Subsea Middle Easter program that's going to be kicking off tomorrow. Take place from 9.30 in the morning, GST. And we've also got the data cloud track, which was a really successful part, the data cloud Middle East track, which started on Monday and is going to be continuing into Wednesday as well, where we're going to be hosting it, where you're going to be chairing the cloud and working for it as well in the late afternoon of tomorrow. And we've got a really, really good lineup of sessions as well. Today's program has been really, really successful as well. We had big keynote panels taken part as well to talk about that digital ecosystem and how Middle East plays a real central part in all of this. So lots have come as well. And we've also got a, we're also working with the ITW-GOF to the Global Leaders Forum to hold a student day event on Thursday as well. So we're really excited about that, working with regional supporters of the events to hold that and bring some students to it as well. So there's a little bit for everyone, basically. A little bit for everyone. And I am, frankly, I'm very honored to have been asked to moderate the panel tomorrow. So any parting thoughts before I let you go back to your business? Yeah, I mean, party thoughts as well. Just come and see our conference program as well. Take part in our networking functions as well. We've got an evening reception event that's taking place tonight as well. And go to the exhibition stands as well and meet with partners as well because they'd love to meet you. And I think whatever type of meeting that you have, whether if it's a small event, the binary event, this is a chance to have those kind of like serendipitous kind of meetings. I love it. And I think it's all about having those kind of like lucky meetings that you just never know, just meet people. Well, you put the right people in the room and good things are gonna happen. So David, thank you so much for being with us on the Middle East capacity live stream powered by JSA. We appreciate it. Yeah, thanks very much, Dean. You bet. And thank you viewers for tuning in to capacity Middle East extra powered by JSA.
