Minerva, the leading distributor for Motorola wireless Broadband in the region, is showcasing Motorola’s existing and latest wireless technology range at a major communications expo.

The company is participating at Middle East Communications (Mecom) 2009, which is running from May 25 to 27 at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre.

During the exhibition, Minerva/ Motorola is showcasing technologies within the wireless space, including Motorola’s professional digital two-way radio product line.

This technology is a digital communications platform that combines the best of two-way radio with digital technology to deliver increased capacity and spectral efficiency, integrated data applications and enhanced voice communications.

“Our business has seen a steady growth over the past six years with an 80 per cent growth rate since last year,” said Leo Psara, chairman of Minerva.

“At Mecom, we are looking to educate visitors and end-users about our unique wireless broadband solution offerings, as well as IT market trends and what this means for them. This is our first year participating in Mecom with our own stand, and despite the global economic crisis we are investing into the future and Mecom represents an ideal opportunity to do so.”

“IDC, a premier global provider of market intelligence, forecasts global spending on IT to rise by just 0.5 per cent this year, while spending in the Middle East and Africa will grow by 6.7 per cent. The UAE is well up with innovation and is already heading and implementing the latest technological trends, and we are looking forward to helping drive these technologies,” added Psara.

Minerva/ Motorola are addressing current technology trends in the region, discussing the future of IT and what this means for businesses as well as consumers. Utilising its experience of over 30 years in the telecommunications sector, Minerva is speaking to consumers and end-users to explain the latest IT advances and their applications.

According to Minerva, the next few years will see the IT sector grow from strength to strength both globally and in the MEA region, driven by strong demand from the rapidly-growing SMB market.

The hardware segment is seeing an increasing role as key driver and the shift towards increased spending on software and services is also steering IT spending.

Minerva/ Motorola will maintain its dedication to the local market by continuing to expand its operations in the Middle East and Africa region, and establishing new business relationships, while providing a wide range of premium cutting edge products and services. – TradeArabia News Service
