The Dubai Press
Club was established in November 1999. The aim of the Dubai Press
Club is to foster interaction among journalists and media professionals
from around the world, to promote exchange of ideas between the newsmakers
and the news communicators, and to create a world-class facility that
fosters pursuit of journalistic excellence.
In just two
years time Dubai Press Club has established itself as an important
forum where Presidents, Prime Ministers and other leading political
and business leaders address and meet regional and international
media professionals.
The Dubai Press
Club has launched the Arab world's first journalism awards. These
awards recognize and stimulate the pursuit of journalistic excellence
in Arabic media.

The Dubai Press
Club has signed agreements of collaboration with leading press clubs
from around the world.
A number of
Media Summits have also been organised by the Dubai Press Club.
These Summits bring the who?s-who from the world of media to Dubai.
The Club provides
excellent business and social facilities for its members. Indeed,
the Dubai Press Club is now a thriving forum for exchange of ideas.
