The

in November 1999.
The aim of the Dubai

among journalists
and media professionals
from around the
world, to promote

between the newsmakers
and the news communicators,
and to create a

excellence.
In
just two years
time Dubai Press

itself as an important
forum where Presidents,
Prime Ministers
and other leading
political and
business leaders
address and meet
regional and international
media professionals.
The
Dubai Press Club
has launched the
Arab world's first
journalism awards.
These awards recognize
and stimulate
the pursuit of
journalistic excellence
in Arabic media.

The
Dubai Press Club
has signed agreements
of collaboration
with leading press
clubs from around
the world.
A
number of Media
Summits have also
been organised
by the Dubai Press

of media to Dubai.
The
