The MENA ICT Forum™ (www.menaictforum.com) is the MENA region’s foremost biennial ICT industry event, held in Jordan under the Patronage of His Majesty King Abdullah II.

Extended from the highly successful “Jordan ICT Forum” held in 2002, 2004, and 2006, the MENA ICT Forum is now a regionally comprehensive assembly which showcases the MENA region’s ICT success stories and addresses industry trends, opportunities, and future outlook. The Forum, which will be held on October 10-11, 2010, also presents a unique opportunity for stakeholders to network, capitalize on existing prospects, and strategize for future growth and expansion of the ICT industry on a regional level.

The MENA ICT Forum™ 2010 features a content-rich agenda that covers vital current and future issues related to regional investment climates, legislative supportive systems, infrastructure and communications, emerging technologies, as well as education and human capital development. In particular, the MENA ICT Forum™ 2010 addresses these issues in a context that is highly relevant to the MENA region, thus providing the business community, decision makers and stakeholders with a holistic overview of the region’s current position, opportunities on hand, and the recommended approach for leveraging its potential.

Moreover, the Forum provides a platform for renowned keynote speakers to offer their global perspectives on the MENA region and provide valuable advice and insight.

King Abdullah II, Intel’s CEO, Dr. Craig Barrett, Cisco’s Chairman, Mr. John Chambers, 3Com’s CEO, Mr. Edgar Masri, and Sun Microsystems' Chief Researcher, Mr. John Gage, among others.
