Business and finanacial news network, CNBC, has unveiled its new studios in Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC).
CNBC will use the facility, based within Nasdaq Dubais Market Site, to deliver a focus on the Middle East business story and enhance its editorial presence across the region.
Earlier this year, CNBC opened its Middle East Headquarters in Abu Dhabi at Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) and has since broadcast Capital Connection from the facility, fronted by Hadley Gamble and Nancy Hungerford.
As of today, television output from CNBCs Dubai studio will feed into Capital Connection and across CNBCs headquarters around the world. Spearheading coverage from the new studio will be the networks newly appointed Dubai Correspondent, Dan Murphy, who relocates from the CNBCs Asia Pacific headquarters in Singapore, where he regularly fronted CNBCs business day programming.
Speaking earlier today, Dan Murphy, Dubai Correspondent at CNBC International, said: Were going to be at the epicentre of Dubais business community telling the dynamic Middle East business story to our global audience.
CNBC also announced it has appointed a number of production, technical operations and digital roles at the new Dubai studios.
KC Sullivan, President and Managing Director at CNBC International, said: Our Dubai bureau will give further bandwidth to our headquarters in Abu Dhabi and provide us with the opportunity to enhance our coverage from the region.
