II Publisher Gary Robinson, said: “This is our seventh year as II doing events in Dubai and each year it has been different. But this is probably the best line-up yet. And I really feel that this shorter format with more networking is the right fit for the Dubai audience. We have listened to our readers and previous event delegates. The secret is the ensure that the panel sessions and the presentations are the right mix of informative, engaging but also have content and discussion that can shape future advice.”
