These include major international and regional brands such as Time Out, Arabian Business, Harper’s Bazaar, Hello! Middle East, Construction Week and Condé Nast Traveller ME. The company also organises over 80 business and consumer events each year, including award ceremonies, conferences and parties. ITP adopts a 360 degree approach to content creation across multiple platforms. ITP Live, its newest division, has five key business areas - the region’s largest social influencers’ agency, video content creation, digital sales representation, ecommerce and live events. The ITP Customer division publishes the catalogues, previews and daily show newspapers for all exhibitions organised by Dubai World Trade Centre as well as a host of specialist publications for major retail and financial organisations. ITP was founded in 1987 in the UK, and won The Queen's Award for Export Achievement in 1995. Reflecting the international scope of its business, the company subsequently relocated to Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, where over 500 staff are based.
