Emirates Business 24-7, 25 November 2008

Kaspersky LabKaspersky LabLoading..., a leading developer of secure content management solutions, has opened its first Middle East regional office in Dubai.

The move is part of the company's international expansion strategy as the Russian vendor is looking at establishing its footprint across the emerging Middle East region, which has shown the strongest regional growth globally in terms of IT competitiveness according to a recent World Economic Forum study published this year.

"The opening of our first Middle East entity will be a pivotal milestone for the Kaspersky LabKaspersky LabLoading... brand and help fuel further awareness of our internationally acknowledged products and services in 20 markets across the region," said Eugene Kaspersky, CEO and co-founder of Kaspersky lab.

"Our Dubai base will be instrumental in our ambitious Middle East growth strategy as we aspire to be in top three anti-virus companies in the market in terms of revenue by 2010, whilst improving our presence in both consumer and corporate segments."

Speaking at a press conference in Dubai to unveil the company's regional plans, Kaspersky said that the Middle East is still well positioned for economic growth, despite a global downturn and that the need for investment in IT infrastructure is essential for the region to obtain a competitive edge over the West.

"Information and communication technology infrastructure is crucial for the Middle East and the growing projected investment in the sector, particularly in governmental organisations, will help us grow our regional business," he said.
