International Media Production Zone (IMPZ), a member of TECOM Investments, has reportedly announced that STM publisher Springer, Germany, is to establish its Middle East headquarters at IMPZ in Dubai. Springer publishes over 2,000 journals and more than 6,500 books every year. The opening of the new office at IMPZ is claimed to be the outcome of Springer's success in developing publishing projects and a rapidly increasing client base within the region.
According to TECOM representatives, the strategic location of Dubai at the crossroads of the Middle East, Africa and South Asia, as well as its logistical support have induced global majors to set up operations there. IMPZ claims to offer significant media resources, technologies and advanced production amenities.
Spread on an area of 43 million sq. ft., IMPZ will provide printing, publishing, packaging and graphics art industries with competitive support infrastructure and business incentives. TECOM Investments' media entities - Dubai Media City, Dubai Studio City and International Media Production Zone – seek to provide a complete value chain of specialised offerings. These are seen to create an established community hub for the media and content creation industries in the region.
