As the third quarter of 2021 comes to a close, there is no better time to reflect on all that we have achieved this year and consider what goals we are still pursuing for the final part of the year.

Mediabox, our cover company, for example, has seen a tremendous uptick in business over the last quarter thanks to the rise in demand for streaming services brought about by government restrictions and lockdowns. Similarly, Xperiment Media, another award-winning company featured in this quarter’s edition, has seen a surge in online media consumption and has adapted to seize the full advantages of this actuality.

MEA Q4 2020

Welcome to the Q4 edition of MEA Markets magazine. Each issue we are devoted to providing you with all of the latest news and features from across the Middle East and Africa.

As 2020 draws to a close and businesses reflect on what has most certainly been a rollercoaster of a year, we decided to cast a light on some extraordinary firms who have gone above and beyond to ensure that they keep delivering their outstanding service, despite of the challenges they have faced.

One firm in particular who has been a shining light during these uncertain times is Alba Cars. Gracing the cover of the last issue of 2020, Alba Cars is on a mission to provide customers with an enjoyable, honest, and transparent service. By further developing the technological side of their business, it allows customers to view and purchase cars from the safety of their own home. The firm has also benefitted due to the shortage of new cars, as it has encouraged people to buy pre-owned cars at affordable cars.

The only thing left to say, is that I hope that you all have a Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year, and we look forward to welcoming you back in 2021.

Dare I say that we’re moving out of the haze of uncertainty and into more optimistic pastures?

While the overall impact is still to be determined, there are reasons to be optimistic – businesses are finding new ways to grow, new ways to develop. Companies all over the Middle East and Africa are highlighting why this vast region is a beacon of perseverance and entrepreneurship, with a dynamism that matches anything the world has to offer. We’ve featured just a few here in this issue, and we hope you enjoy it.

In the meantime, I hope you all stay safe and have a wonderful quarter ahead.

MEA Q2 2020 - Cover

Welcome to the Q2 issue of MEA Markets Magazine. As always, we are dedicated to providing our readers with all of the latest news and features from across the Middle East and Africa.

The last few months have been a rather thorough baptism of fire for businesses across the region, with the outlook looking mixed moving forwards for the rest of the year. But, throughout it all, we’re still seeing businesses grow, pivot, evolve, and adapt to this truly unprecedented situation. 

This issue we have featured a few companies that have continued to make waves in their respective industries and have continued to impress as we’ve moved throughout 2020. From technology specialists, to education experts, every business we’ve spotlighted here has endeavoured to keep the ball rolling when everything else has ground almost to a standstill.

MEA Q1 2020 cover

Welcome to the Q1 issue of MEA Markets Magazine. As always, we are dedicated to providing our readers with all of the latest news and features from across the Middle East and Africa.

It’s an unprecedented time, to put it lightly, but the world continues on. True, at a more cautious pace as we try and make the typical everyday more …. normal. The world of business, especially, is at a bizarre crossroads, as we continue on where we can, and look to protect what we can’t.

It’s also a time of intense change. Industries that remained traditional are now being forced to adapt to more modern sensibilities and methods of working. Time will tell whether these changes stick, or whether – once this is all over – we collectively slide back into the old. It’s going to be interesting, whatever happens.

But, for now, MEA Markets will spotlight the work of businesses who are going above and beyond. Businesses that are setting the pace, adapting, and driving change. Today, innovation and creativity are needed, with business leaders up and down the region finding new ways to thrive in this otherwise uncertain world we now find ourselves in. Take, for instance, our front cover booker: Eloise R Photography. We spoke with owner Eloise Robbertze in detail about her work as an artist, and her inspirations. Because perhaps, right now, we all could appreciate something precious, rare and beautiful. 

I hope you all stay safe and have a wonderful quarter ahead.
