Discussing the deal, Manoj Khimji, managing director of The MediaVantage, said: “We are enthusiastic about this contract and we look forward to working with IC Publications across their leading African media. This exclusive partnership falls in line with our commitment of providing the best possible international media solutions to clients and agencies in the Middle East region. The growing trade and investment relationship between the two regions have witnessed a steady increase in media opportunities and innovative solutions. Our team is delighted to add these dynamic titles to our portfolio.”
Omar Ben Yedder, group publisher of IC Publications, added: “The GCC market and the Arab world has always been vital to us, especially as cities like Dubai position themselves as a gateway for the African region. Africa represents a phenomenal opportunity for global and Middle Eastern companies.”
