My guess is we are not an exhibitor. He is going to rub elbows and get meetings or fulfill meetings already lined up. Don't think SB can justify spending probably 10s to 100s of thousands of dollars to be an exhibitor. That list looks like pretty much only the big boys. Better to walk in and visit and say "look at this great product I have that everyone wants". That is my opinion.
Not exhibitor, actual meetings at the Dubai Auto Show starting Nov. 14 with major clients including:
Taxi Watani Careem (Uber for Middle East) Tammimi Transport Al Naghi Group Key Rent a car Muhaidib Group - Integrated Transport Co Ministry of Transport Saudi RTA Dubai Al Futtaim (major auto distributor) Al Jomaih (GM distributor) Juffali (Mercedes Saudi) SAPTCo (Bus company) “All clients will be testing units prior to our meetings next week. We will also be meeting with other major companies in the Middle East to discuss their distracted driving needs. These meetings are huge and represent a large cross section of both consumer and commercial groups.”
Press Release on 10/16/2017 states that we were invited to participate. I guess participation can have different meanings in a show of this type. For ONCI, participation might simply mean attendance, giving us access to many sources at one site. Not sure but just a thought.
