info2cell WAPs Up Bumper GITEX

Dubai, 1st November 2000

Info2cell, the Middle East's pioneering mobile information services provider, finished GITEX 2000 in a bouyant mood following key deals that not only add to the company's rich mobile information content, but that will also take the Jordanian/UAE company into new world markets.

"GITEX 2000 is a show that will remain in our minds for a long time," said Bashar Dahabra. "We had a storming show, met thousands of new friends, struck new deals and have ended the show with new impetus, new goals and new strengths. I don't know what else you could ever expect from attending a show!"

During GITEX, info2cell signed a deal with leading European mobile information services company Acotel that will see a $4 million investment in Info2cell by Acotel, along with a number of strategic product, service and content moves that will bring Acotel's advanced technologies to Middle East users and Info2cell's content and innovation to markets in Europe and the Americas.

The company also announced that it is to embark on a major new project to bring BBCArabic.com content to mobile users: the deal also marks the launch of Arabic language mobile information services in the Middle East and other world regions for the first time.

"GITEX was a major triumph for us, and we'll be back next year with a much bigger presence for sure," said Dahabra. "It looks like we'll have to book space early because of the demand from other exhibitors, but I'm pleased to make that commitment with the kind of return on investment we've seen this year."

In addition to the two major announcements Info2cell made during GITEX 2000, other key alliances were confirmed between Info2cell and partners during GITEX, with announcements expected soon after the show.
