Viola Communications bagged the award for Best Consumer Exhibition over 10,000 sq.m. at MESE Awards 2018 in Dubai on the 23rd April 2018. The award celebrated its work on Innovator 2018 and the Abu Dhabi Science Festival on the Abu Dhabi Corniche earlier this year.
Speaking on the award, Ammar Sharaf, Viola Communications CEO, said “Our business units worked together seamlessly for a truly integrated effort, delivering a successful event. Receiving this award is a testament to the dedication and tremendous team efforts of which we are so proud.”
Michail Panagiotakis, Head of Viola Events, added: “We are beyond thrilled to receive this outstanding award. This spectacular event has combined the latest pioneering techniques and out of the box innovative thinking. We were humbled that we have successfully delivered one of the most sought after initiatives in the UAE in 2018 contributing to nurturing and reinforcing innovation amongst the younger generation as a whole.”
Viola Events built the venue from the ground up and brought all the activities to life; a massive task considering that the event included 114 booths for innovators, 2 huge marquees providing space for scheduled educational workshops, and a giant stage with interactive entertainment for all ages, along with a ‘social media wall’ in a prominent position.
Giving life to a prominent and successful project such as Innovator 2018 and the Abu Dhabi Science Festival reflects Viola’s commitment to its clients, becoming an extension of their team in the pursuit of developmental progression.
Innovator 2018 was a huge hit with both participants and visitors, attracting more than 60,000 attendees. More than 7,600 students from Abu Dhabi City and Al Ain attended the various activities, and 25 innovations, over 100 innovators and 33 interactive workshops were on show at the festival venues.
