Capacity Middle East is the event you simply must be at to succeed in the MENA market. It is the central event in the calendar for the region’s most influential companies and people. Big hitters in the region take part, and at a high level - shaping the future of digital infrastructure in the region.
The world of digital infrastructure is moving closer together. Sectors that previously rarely came into contact with each other are collaborating and partnering like never before. This led to a need for a meeting place that allowed the wider community to come together and focus on developing digital infrastructure to keep the world connected - and that meeting place is Capacity Middle East.
Connecting everybody in digital infrastructure
From its roots as a carrier-focused event, Capacity Middle East has grown to become the largest event in the Middle East for the wider digital infrastructure community. The event covers the carrier, cloud, peering, hyperscale, content, voice, messaging, finance, edge, software, equipment, data centre, and satellite industries - giving companies in these sectors a chance to network, do business and steer the ship of global connectivity.
Capacity Middle East took place for the 19th time in 2024. Held in Dubai for all that time, Capacity Middle East is the third-largest event in Capacity Media's events calendar, after International Telecoms Week in National Harbor, DC and Capacity Europe in London. Capacity Middle East 2025 will return for its 20th anniversary edition from 11 to 13 February 2025 - make sure you're there!
MENA’s must-attend connectivity event
Capacity Middle East is a senior-level event for senior-level business decisions. All the region’s leading carriers and connectivity providers take part in the event every year, and they make a splash when doing so – big exhibition booths, big teams on site, and big names from the C-suite on the stages and in the meeting rooms.
