WSI Delegates attend Franchising Middle East Exhibition in Abu Dhabi
Dubai just hosted Middle East's only internet business event," The Internet Show". The event took place in Abu Dhabi on 16th and 17th of April. With more than 120 nationalities residing in the city and having earned the reputation as the Middle East's commercial hub, UAE presented a great hosting environment for "The Internet show."
- (1888PressRelease) May 05, 2012 - Middle East represents one of the fast growing markets globally and the Internet show is a clear indication of the rising boom of the online participation and the growing digital market within the region.
This show is the largest event in the region, directly addressing how to innovate and excel in an online world.
Middle East with its powerful economy, a combined population of 1.4 billion people and an outstanding GDP of almost $1.9 trillion presents its case as a great prospect region for franchisors to present their franchise ideas.
According to Abdul Rahman, organizer of the 'Franchising Middle East Exhibition," Franchise ideas seem to be quite a hit within the Middle Eastern market, as franchise-driven revenues have recently been estimated at $30 billion with an annual growth rate of 27 percent.
As the digital realm continues to invade the world, growth in the MiddleEast will even be more dramatic for WSI as the infrastructure improves and the internet becomes more accessible and affordable. Hence, internet business ideas should be well-received and offer high earning potential. If considering franchise ideas or internet business ideas, a WSI franchise would be a great fit for the region.
WSI's master franchisee in the region said, "When I established WSI operations in Dubai in 2005, there was very little demand on online marketing services here.
Most businesses wanted to build their websites and needed basic email services, but this has changed. Today, due to the excellent reputation of WSI brand in the Middle East, we receive hundreds of enquiries on a monthly basis for search engine optimization, social media marketing, online advertising, etc. However, in order to cope with the drastically increase in demand for WSI services; we are looking to expand in the Middle East with more franchisees. "
Although the Middle East accounted for a small share of the global online ad spending (0.4%), it is expected to rise to 1.3% by 2015. A WSI franchise is a great prospect when exploring franchise ideas in the region.
"WSI already has a strong foothold in the Middle East and its presence has been steadily increasing with the addition of new franchisees recently. Middle East presents untapped potential with its expanding population, rising income levels and growing consumption of digital services in the region and therefore WSI plans to expand its franchise business here," says Ron McArthur, President of WSI World.
