Additionally, countries in the region, like Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, etc., are heavily investing in the digital transformation of business by means of various government initiatives like ScaleUp Digitize, The National Strategy for Digital Transformation, etc., in the region to improve their competitiveness on the global stage. These government initiatives would raise awareness of the benefits of CPaaS solutions among businesses in the Middle East. This would encourage more businesses to adopt these solutions to improve their communication capabilities during the forecast period.

Moreover, the business in the region is increasingly focused on improving customer engagement & providing personalized experiences, which have pushed the demand for these solutions. This surging demand has led to the launch of new companies & partnerships between these solutions providers & other entities, such as software vendors, cloud providers, and telecom operators. For instance, in 2022, Etisalat, a telecommunications company based in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Launched engageX, a CPaaS ecosystem that customizes customer experience journeys with seamless, multi-channel communications., further states the research report, “Middle East & Africa Communications Platform as a Service (CPaaS) market Analysis, 2023.”
