TCC Joins UKTI Trade Mission to UAE

TCC MD Stuart Hatton joined a UKTI backed trade mission last week to Abu Dhabi and Dubai to explore opportunities for UK Media companies in the United Arab Emirates.
Organised by The Bridge Training, the trip included visits to TwoFour54, Abu Dhabi Media Company, Dubai Media City and Dubai Studio City plus meetings with local production companies and agencies.
The Bridge Training business development director Triston Wallace said: “There is no gold rush, but there is work there. The UAE is looking to develop long-term partnerships and a legacy. Its ambition is to be a hub for the whole of the Middle East.”

Delegates from Evolutions, Ascent Media, Elstree Studios, Hullabaloo, DIA, Golden Square and Azimuth also made the trip.
