Anas Chbib, Managing Director of AGT, emphasises AGT's determination in the region: "So much has been moving in the region since the last GITEX. New opportunities have emerged; many new clients have decided to go for real security and shook hands with AGT. It's a good feeling to be trusted in the region." he adds: "For AGT as a security solutions house the GITEX, of course, is a must. In fact, the UAE being the hub of the Middle East is a must. Not that we underestimate the other countries of the region, but at the GITEX everything happens in Dubai. This is also why we have chosen Dubai Media City to be the location of our Middle East Business Unit.
Among AGT partners at Gitex this year will be GeNUA, IMC AG, GSMK, BINTEC, IDS Scheer and many others. "Our solutions were developed in partnership with the largest European companies under the authorisation of the German Federal Authority for Data Security (BSI), which serves government departments, ministries and the army," says Anas Chbib, AGT Managing Director. "Technology transfer and Human Resources development are a core part of our solutions" he adds.
