Performing at the Mindshare Media Summit in Dubai!
Sarah traveled 16 hours to Dubai and then another 24 hours back, and in between she got to spend 38 hours actually in Dubai. But the hours there were fascinating. The conference hosted some big movers and shakers of the media landscape in the Middle East and it was Sarah’s first time in the region! Hopefully the first trip of many. Much gratitude to the organizers of the event.
