q.media (Qatar Media Services), the Middle East’s leading media agency and leading conference management company, Congrex have announced a major joint venture agreement.
The new joint venture, which comes into effect immediately, calls for Congrex to develop and deliver conference services together with q.media globally. The signing follows on the heels of the successful delivery of the World Arabian Horse Organization conference, which was held from November 1 to November 8, 2011 in Qatar.
The partnership is currently actively pursuing and delivering on a variety of prominent events of local, regional and international significance. A joint Congrex and q.media team have been appointed the Professional Conference Organiser (PCO) for the 8th World Chambers Congress. The event, hosted by Qatar Chamber of Commerce and Industry (QCCI) and World Chambers Federation (WCF) takes place in Doha in 2013. The event will bring together over 2000 delegates from Chambers of Commerce from around the world and aims to strengthen business ties within the wider Africa and Middle East region.
Commenting on the impact of the agreement, Congrex Chief Executive Officer, David Wade-Smith said, “This joint venture is a perfect example of how a partnership approach always works best. I am absolutely certain that Congrex’s efficient and imaginative conference service delivery will contribute to the already highly acknowledged service portfolio of q.media.”
