The newly-appointed President and CEO of the OEM’s EMEA division has journeyed to Canon’s regional headquarters in Dubai.
Yuichi Ishizuka visited the UAE base for Canon’s Middle East and Central & North African operations four months after his appointment, in a move which albawaba claimed “emphasises the region as a priority for Canon EMEA.”
albawaba also reported that “the visit reinforced Canon EMEA’s commitment to the growth of the region’s imaging industry by providing the latest technologies in business and consumer imaging products and solutions,” calling the region a “fast-developing market” for the OEM, given the local tech and start-up scene and the entrepreneurial spirit of the youth-majority population.
Over the course of the visit, Ishizuka took in the newly-opened Space360, a collaborative, innovation-led space that “connects minds and drives creativity within the organisation”; he also visited the Innovation Centre, which opened last year.
“The Middle East and Africa are important growth markets for Canon,” asserted Ishizuka. “We are expanding in these regions rapidly because businesses and governments understand how imaging technologies can enhance their global competitiveness in a fast-evolving, digital world.”
