  • Exploring Residents' Perceptions of Mega Event-Dubai Expo 2020
    sustainability Article Exploring Residents’ Perceptions of Mega Event-Dubai Expo 2020: A Pre-Event Perspective Mohit Vij 1,* , Amitabh Upadhya 1 , Anu Vij 2 and Manoj Kumar 1 1 School of Business, Skyline University College, Sharjah, 1797, UAE; [email protected] (A.U.); [email protected] (M.K.) 2 School of Business Administration, Aldar University College, Dubai, 35529, UAE; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +971-505904702 Received: 31 December 2018; Accepted: 24 February 2019; Published: 3 March 2019 Abstract: This study explores the residents’ perceptions of economic, socio-cultural and environmental impacts of a mega-event (World Expo 2020) to be held in Dubai, as well as their level of inclination to participate in the event. The event organizers announced a requirement of thirty thousand volunteers to assist them in successfully organizing the mega event. Such events could prove to be landmarks in destination brand building and may lead to an increase in the number of tourists. The purpose of the study is to gauge the level of understanding about the event impacts within the resident population and their willingness to get involved in event organization. Priory studies of perceptions about the economic, cultural and environmental impacts of a mega-event, are well-nigh non-existent, especially for World Expositions. This study explores residents’ perception to get a fair idea of how they get involved in a mega event that will surely have profound impacts on the destination. Drawing on stakeholder theory and triple bottom line (TBL) model, the study uses primary data collected from more than two hundred fifty residents of the region, through a structured questionnaire.

  • Canada Commits to World Expo 2020 Dubai Statements from Canada-UAE Business Council (CUBC) Leaders
    Canada Commits to World Expo 2020 Dubai Statements from Canada-UAE Business Council (CUBC) Leaders “I’m delighted to hear that Canada will join other G20 countries at World Expo 2020 Dubai. Canadians understand firsthand the significance of World’s Fairs. We hosted two of our own – Expo ’67 in Montreal and Expo ’86 in Vancouver. These were transformative events that brought Canadians and the world together, strengthened our nation from coast to coast, and showed the world what Canada could offer. We celebrated 100 years of confederation at Expo ‘67; the UAE will celebrate its 50th Anniversary with World Expo 2020 Dubai. By participating in World Expo 2020 Dubai, we are supporting the United Arab Emirates as it becomes the first country to host a World Expo in the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia. We are also showing up at an important international trade show. Canadian innovations, business, and culture will take centre stage. Our cultural and business ties will deepen with the UAE, and with more than 200 other nations participating in World Expo 2020 Dubai. During my time as the Co-Chair of the Canada-UAE Business Council, I have been exposed to clear opportunities for Canada in the UAE and broader region. Opportunities in engineering, construction, health, and education stand out. There is untapped potential for Canada to realize as we work towards further diversifying our trade and investment. I am honoured to volunteer with the CUBC. It’s a passion project to learn more about a relatively unknown country to Canadians and to advance relations between two like-minded nations.” - The Honourable Jean Charest, Co-Chair, Canada-UAE Business Council and Partner, McCarthy Tetrault “I’d like to congratulate Canada and welcome all Canadians to join the world at World Expo 2020 Dubai from October 2020 to April 2021.

They Fpresent a fantastic opportunity to indulge the creative’s ambition to realise experiences which command the attention of a broad spectrum of visitors. Controversial, educational, stunning, provocative, utterly perplexing - I’ve seen pavilions be all these things, and rightly so. EXPOs are the time to showcase our boldest ideas, confront the issues facing us as a global society and stimulate debate for resolution. The tricky part is conveying these messages to a diverse audience in an entertaining and innovative way. EX Over the last 50 years, Electrosonic has been involved in creating lasting memories for 15 EXPOs, in nine countries, providing AV solutions to over 80 pavilions. We have worked with some of the greatest pavilion teams to bring their aspirations to life, innovating to raise our capabilities in sound and visual experiences to deliver the designers’ dreams, no matter how wild they might initially appear. As with our experience in the entertainment arena, we understand a pavilion’s success is measured in its ability to engage the visitor and offer an experience they have never had before. With technology now playing a central role in all our lives, to capture an audience’s attention and provide an opportunity to demonstrate their role in achieving change requires an ability to rise above the ordinary and dare for something beyond.
