The 12th annual sign and graphic imaging expo for outdoor equipment manufacturers worldwide has been slated to hold from the 25th to 27th of January 2010 in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The expo, which will attracts both exhibitors and visitors from across the UAE, is a specialised event dedicated to the signage, outdoor media, screen and digital printing industries.
Speaking to M2 on the expo, Mr. Bankole Ademulegun, President, Outdoor Advertising Association of Nigeria, says practitioners cannot afford to miss it. “It is a must attend for practitioners who seek for ways to move their businesses ahead, especially with upshot of regulatory agencies in most state of the federation,” he says.
Prince Emeka Okezie, general secretary, Outdoor Advertising Association of Nigeria, concurring with Ademulegun says it’s essential for every practitioner. “We are not manufacturers but practitioners. But the expo is an avenue for every practitioner to know the new trend in the industry. With the usual billboards used for outdoor advertising in Nigeria being phased out, this expo becomes a necessity for practitioners. For practitioners to have a meaningful outdoor business in Nigeria today, we must have to import boards. So the expo is important for every practitioner who desires to have a meaningful business in today’s outdoor advertising business in Nigeria,” he says.
