The Managing Director of social media platform X in the MENA region, Antoine Caironi, has praised the UAE’s investment in its digital economy, saying the country is at the forefront of innovation.
He also highlighted the UAE’s rise as a global hub for innovation in the creative space, saying the country shares the same sentiment as X.
"Having lived in the UAE for the past 10 years, I have had the privilege to witness this first-hand. What you’re seeing here is nothing less than extraordinary,” Caironi said.
“At X, we share this passion for innovation. Over the past few years, we have been busy building a platform where the most exciting models are unfolding live in real time in front of us,” he added.
The statement was made during the second day of the 1 Billion Followers Summit at DIFC, the world’s largest summit dedicated to the content creator economy.
The three-day event, which is set to come to a close on Monday, has gathered more than 350 speakers and 5,000 content creators together.
