Some of you might have attended our CEO Danish Farhan’s keynote yesterday at Social Media World as part of The Internet Show in Abu Dhabi. Danish wanted to share his slides, so here they are. If you’ve been to one of his talks, you’ll know that its the ideas that drive the presentation, not the slides!

Thanks to all for the applause and the absolutely fabulous response and interaction!

Social Media World MENA brings together the region’s leading consumer brands, social networks, and their partners. As consumers open up to new channels, brands across the region are under pressure to develop a social strategy that works and delivers ROI.

Our CEO, Danish Farhan will be delivering a keynote address at the conference tomorrow, titled Of Banks and Movies: Social Media in the UAE. He’s let slip to us that the talk will feature two prominent social media stories that Xische has been a part of: RAKBANK and City of Life. If you’re around, make sure not to miss it!
