Welcome to the Power+Water Review. The same quality, the same great coverage of technology and business trends from across the Middle East but with a brand new look and feel. We have re-designed to give you a cleaner, crisper reading experience and we are sure you will love it. And if the redesign wasn’t demanding enough, you have to listen to how the rest of our month was. We thought the events would never end. First, there were the international ones, starting with the Brocade Technology Day Summit, which took place in San Jose, California. This one was all about the previously storage-only-nownetworking-firm and how it was was capitalising on growing trends with new launches. (You can read all about the Summit, beginning page 10). This was quickly followed by EMC World, which took place in Las Vegas. This IT giant’s annual gathering was all about bringing together its strength in cloud and storage technologies to address the growing concern of big data in global enterprises. (We bring you our coverage of the event, from page 6). On the home front, there was the FVC TechCafe series in Dubai. This time over nCircle was a part of it and end-users discussed at length on networking security and compliance, among others. That’s on page 12. There was also the lighter launches of Microsoft’s new Windows Phone OS, code named Mango, and the after-work launch party of the BlackBerry Playbook. Incidentally, the Playbook launch, we have been told, has been postponed to the 25th of June, due to “circumstances that were outside EMS control.” Later in the month we also attended the monthly Thought Incubator session conducted by TECOM, where they discussed the very interesting topic of online reputation management (ORM). There was HelpAG’s Security Spotlight, followed by the SAP User Group MENA conference, and Al Taqnyah’s e-notary conference, which brought our month to an end. You will also see, apart from our cover story on the Qatar First Investment Bank, features on virtualisation, network management and the use of technology in the hospitality sector in the Middle East. As the world turns towards social media, so has CNME. We are now actively tweeting live updates from every event that we attend. So follow us to catch events as they happen. Do let us know what you think of the ‘new look, new feel’ CNME as well - via Twitter or plain old e-mail. Get writing then. We want to know what you think. Meanwhile, happy reading

The Region’s 2010 Arabian Power and Water Summit got underway yesterday at the Fairmont’s new Bab Al Bahr Hotel in Abu Dhabi.

Governments still need to determine what the ideal portfolio for GCC future power generation is and how to integrate alternative fuel sources into existing structures.
Edmund O’Sullivan, MEED Events Chairman commented, “The purpose of the Arabian Power and Water Summit is to provide a platform for the industry leaders to come together and discuss the best way to meet the key strategic and technical challenges that lie ahead. The success of the power and water industry is vital to the region’s growth so it is imperative that the industry’s decision makers are
fully informed of the different solutions available to fulfil power & water demand.” For the first time anywhere in the Middle East, the Summit also featured a presentation regarding the challenges Iraq is facing as part of their reconstruction effort. John Dempsey, Generation Advisor, Iraq Transition and Assistance Office (ITAO) and Jeff Larkin, Country Manager - Iraq, Parsons Brinckerhoff, outlined the plans to raise the $26bn that the country’s Minister of Electricity has estimated is needed to refurbish and increase the electrical sector capacity in the country.
