A next generation business newspaper for the Middle East has been launched in Dubai. The online newspaper titled The Arabian Post brings the best stories to be published in the next edition of the region’s major newspapers as well as a selection of the day’s published reports, combining with the most important stories drawn from leading international newspapers and magazines, such as the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Time, Economist, The Economic Times, The Strait Times of Singapore etc.
The local and regional newspapers featured include the Gulf News, the National, 7 Days, Emirates 24/7, Arab News, Daily Star, among others. The Arabian Post will also carry own exclusive reports and analysis of events that are of critical importance to business and industry across the Arab region as well as its politics and social life, apart from stories on trending subjects.
Promoted by a team of media veterans and technology enthusiasts, The Arabian Post promises readers that they don’t need to visit any other website to follow the day’s news and analysis, including breaking news. As stories are also selected on the basis of trending subjects, the readers keep themselves up-to-date with what news followers around the world are engaged with.
Promoters say The Arabian Post seeks to create a new trend in online news browsing in the region as it recognizes the changing habits of people, who have only limited time to spend on reading news and yet don’t want to miss any important development of the day. In this respect it incorporates concepts established by successful players like the Huffington Post, the First Post etc.
The newspaper will be available across all platforms and will soon have the option to personalize content so that the reader can set the preferred newspapers in the delivered content.
The Arabian Post seeks to fill a crucial gap in business reporting in the region, which despite the establishment of a number of financial centres, including the Dubai International Financial Centre, Qatar Financial Centre, Bahrain Financial Harbour etc, and a number of stock and commodity exchanges, including Nasdaq-Dubai and DGCX, does not have a single business newspaper.
