Wimax Middle East

The WiMAX Middle East will be Wimax Forum's first Middle East focused event, and will focus specifically on supporting the Middle Eastern operator community in developing and managing profitable growth of WiMAX network deployments.

WiMAX Middle East 2012 is an event for all participants, both operators and vendors, to meet, exchange ideas and develop business and cooperative relationships. The event will highlight the opportunities, challenges and strategies involved in operating a profitable WiMAX network in the Middle East.

WiMAX technology has flourished in the Middle East, providing quality broadband services for consumers and enterprises, while also providing connectivity in vertical and industrial applications such as Oil & Gas Smart Field networks. This event is constructed specifically to allow the Middle East’s WiMAX operators to network, share key lessons and work together for the benefit of the industry. Our goal is for attending operators to gain concrete knowledge that will help them build and sustain profitable WiMAX businesses.
