Red Events Nominated for Prestigious Gulf Capital SMEinfo Awards 2013

Dubai – UAE: 10 September 2013 – Red Events – a leading event production service provider in the United Arab Emirates – has been nominated as a finalist for the MasterCard Small Business of the Year category for the Gulf Capital SMEinfo Awards 2013.

To be held on 6 November 2013, Gulf Capital SMEinfo Awards 2013 is distinctive as it recognizes success, growth, and innovation in business, and provides a platform for SMEs to raise their profile, brands, products and services.

According to Dubai SME, SMEs account for 95 per cent of the total enterprise population in Dubai, and employ 42 per cent of Dubai's workforce.

For a city like Dubai, constantly under the microscope for large enterprises setting up, or new skyscrapers being constructed, SMEs are a sign that its residents are progressing with the city, filling niche gaps in the market. Today, an individual can set up a business with limited accessible resources and create a network with like-minded SMEs. Opportunities are vigilant and one such example is Red Events.

On being nominated, Arif Ebrahim, Managing Director, Red Events, said: “Being nominated and recognised in the business is fulfilling for me and my team. We are a stable, progressing company, with a passionate team that puts in a lot of personal time and dedication into every job. Our success is not based on a single event for a client, but on clients with whom we have built strong relationships over the years due to our work ethic. We are one of few companies in the UAE that has successfully managed to handle several government events and conferences. I am very proud that Red has been recognized and nominated by the Gulf SMEinfo Awards.”

Commencing operations with only three staff, today, Red Events has grown into an organization that has over 40 employees including technical staff.

Keeping track of new technologies and well as the professional advancements in the industry, the company strives to create innovative solutions to fulfill the ever-changing requirements of its clients.

Salma Al Mansouri, Al Ain Municipality said: “I have worked with many event management companies over the years, but Red Events exceed our expectations. They have organized five different events for us, and each has had its own unique aspects from previous ones. We are truly amazed at how dedicated and passionate they are. If you are looking for extraordinary world class events – you need to look for Red Events!”

A recent milestone by Red Events comprised the management and production of the largest photo album created in memory of Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan by Her Highness Sheikha Fatima Bint Mubarak. This eventually went on to be included in the Guinness World Records 2013.

The company's client portfolio includes many prestigious organizations in the UAE, primarily the UAE government, semi- government and large corporations. Their credentials include several years of continuously successfully raising the bar for prestigious annual events across UAE.

Red Events is a complete one-stop-shop event production company which provides an array of services: Light and Sound Equipment, Laser Show, AV Solution, Exhibition Design and Execution, Production and Execution of Conferences and Award Ceremonies, Fireworks, 3D Hologram, Post Production and Entertainment.
