As the region becomes more digitally connected, demand for Digital Services and technologies is also becoming more prominent. With the digital economy still in its infancy, it is unclear which global advances in Digital Services and technologies will be adopted by the Middle East and which require local development. In this context, identifying how, where and with whom to work with in this market can be very challenging. In our effort to broaden the discussion, we have prepared this report to define the Digital Services landscape for the Middle East, to help the region’s digital community in understanding and navigating through this complex and ever-changing space. Eng. Ayman Al Bannaw Today, we are witnessing an unprecedented change in the technology, media, and Chairman & CEO telecommunications industries. These changes, driven mainly by consumers, are taking Noortel place at a pace that is causing confusion, disruption and forcing convergence. This has created massive opportunities for Digital Services in the region, which has in turn led to certain industry players entering the space in an incoherent manner, for fear of losing their market share or missing the opportunities at hand.

This study provides an understanding of the international expansion strategy of family businesses in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in comparison to other countries. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the internationalization strategy for family businesses, key driving factors and the major barriers that could restrict United Arab Emirates family businesses progress. Based on the objective of the study, this paper encompasses both qualitative and quantitative research. The sample of this study includes 20 managers of top 10 family businesses in UAE. The findings indicate that most of the participants (80%) are interested in the internationalization process to expand their operations. To remain competitive, UAE policymakers should consider entrepreneurship education and business initiative to stimulate entrepreneurship activities both at the local and national levels. Keywords: Internationalization, Family Business, Strategic Management. 1 INTRODUCTION Choosing the right entry mode for international expansion is a critical managerial decision and can have significant and far-reaching consequences for a firm‘s performance and survival (Lu and Beamish, 2001; Bradley and Gannon, 2000). According to Chen and Mujtaba (2007), the methods of international market entry are understood to vary in three major aspects: (a) cost as resource commitment; (b) control as level of ownership; and (c) risk related to the level of resources committed and the complexity of the environment entered (Chen and Mujtaba, 2007).
