HH Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum awards O2 Marketing Communications title of ‘Best Marketing and Promotion Business’

O2 Marketing Communications (O2MC) was awarded title of Best Marketing and Promotion Business earlier today by HH Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai accompanied by HH Sheikh Hamdan Bin Mohammed Al Maktoum, President of the Executive Council of Dubai and Chairman of Mohammed Bin Rashid Establishment for Young Business Leaders.

His Highness presented the award to O2MC CEO Mohammed Almeeza during a midday ceremony at the Dubai World Trade Centre.

The award goes out to the overall best advertising and marketing communications agency in the GCC region and is presented by the Mohammed Bin Rashid Establishment for Young Business Leaders (SME). SME is a nation wide organization dedicated to nurturing the spirit of entrepreneurship in the UAE and encouraging the growth of new businesses in the small and medium Business sectors in Dubai.

Abdul Baset Al Janahi, CEO of SME said, “O2 Marketing Communications’ performance has been exemplary. Barely 18 months old, their high quality, research-based, tailor-made services have filled a gap in regional marketing communications industry; as a true ambassador of entrepreneurship in their field, they truly deserve this award.’

Today’s award serves to corroborate the evidence of O2MC’s solid work. The company’s research-based methodology, creative talent and high quality execution have already garnered for O2MC recognition and contracts from high profile clients such as Al Salam Bank Group (Sudan, Algeria, Bahrain, Syria), Bahrain Investment Wharf, Deustche Bank, Ducab, Emaar Financial Services, KAASCO, Leader Capital, Orbit Satellite TV and Radio network, Tameer and more.

Mohammed Almeeza, CEO of O2MC, said: ‘It is very exciting and we at O2MC feel truly honored to receive this award from Sheikh Mohammed himself. Marketing, by nature, is very competitive and therefore it is truly gratifying to be recognized for our marketing and creative work in the region.’

‘Like many smaller companies, we have the advantage over our larger competitors in being more flexible organizationally, and are able to devote more time to our client’s individual needs. We work very diligently to maintain strong relationships with all of our clients; this award belongs as much to them as it does to us,’ he added.

With forty employees averaging in age just below thirty years old, O2MC attributes its success to its research based methodology, fresh perspective, diversity, talented staff and an environment conducive to creative thinking. The success doesn’t stop here; while headquartered in Dubai, O2MC has locations in Bahrain and Syria, with plans to expand throughout the GCC in the coming year.
