Dubai eGovernment has announced that its stand at the 30th edition of GITEX Technology Week will be three-folds bigger compared with its exhibition space in the 2009 edition. Offering a unique opportunity for participants to exchange experiences and to explore the latest IT innovations and solutions.
Dubai eGovernment has always been keen since its inception in 2001 to participate in annual trade exhibitions, aiming to raise awareness of eServices through direct interaction with visitors and businessmen interested in technology. Each year during the weeklong GITEX fair, which is one of the most important international events in IT and computing, Dubai eGovernment offers several interactive presentations about the eServices provided by Dubai government departments to the public, businesses and visitors, in addition to the shared services being offered by Dubai eGovernment to government departments aimed at realising the collective goal of building a knowledge-based economy in Dubai.
Ahmed Bin Humaidan, Director General of Dubai eGovernment, said: “We look forward to this year's exhibition as it presents an opportunity to get acquainted with the latest IT experiences and solutions and work closer with participating organisations and exchange expertise with them. We will also try to cater for the needs of our visitors at GITEX, with the goal of improving the eServices in the emirate and enhancing the level of efficiency and excellence within different local government departments in line with our common goal of speeding up the transformation of Dubai into an integrated digital community. This is in accordance with the vision of H.H. Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, to build a knowledge-based economy in line with the latest global trends of providing eServices through gateway eServices in order to respond to the daily requirements of all segments of society and ensure that customers have an easy and smooth access to these eServices wherever they are and at any given time”.
“Dubai eGovernment is fully prepared to participate in this year's GITEX as we have set up the perfect exhibition showcase that capitalises on our experiences in previous editions in collaborating with government departments and authorities. The exhibition space is three-folds larger this year to allow different departments to showcase their eServices under the umbrella of Dubai eGovernment. By gathering the largest number of government departments in one place, we aim to stimulate communication and cooperation among these departments in order to upgrade eServices and enhance their efficiency and encourage the public to explore these services. Dubai eGovernment will also be keenly monitoring events, press conferences and agreements signed at the event”, he added.
Dubai eGovernment, following the success of its participation in past GITEX editions, is strengthening its presence in this year's edition by expanding its exhibition space to 2,800 square meters from just 800 square metres in 2009. The exhibition space shall be allocated to different departments based on the type of services they provide to the public. There are more than 2,000 eServices that will be featured for various members of the community such as citizens, residents, businesses and visitors.
The Dubai eGovernment exhibition will comprise a network of workstations for visitors to try out all eServices that can be accessed through the official portal of the Government of Dubai (dubai.ae). The special website www.gitex.dubai.ae for public information covering the services of participating departments and associated events will also be launched.
