One of Dubai’s most creative web development firms has found
the web hosting solution they were looking for among the snow banks of
Saskatoon, Canada. After almost two years of negotiations, FalconSearch.com
has agreed to trust their hosting needs to Amanah Tech Inc.
A formal signing ceremony was held on the sidelines of GITEX 2003 Dubai and
was attended by numerous government officials, including Ambassador to the UAE
David Hutton and Consul and Senior Trade Commissioner Anne Argyris. The
prestigious event was covered by Dubai TV in a live broadcast and included
comments from both company presidents and the Honourable David Hutton.
We have chosen Amanah Tech Inc. as a result of an exhaustive search of
suitable hosting firms, after having both technical support and customer
service issues with our current provider. We are absolutely confident that
Amanah will provide the service and support that our clients deserve. Our
company finds having customer service and technical support in Arabic, as well
as English, extremely helpful; that is, in addition to the incredible care we
have received during our trial period,” Mr. Iqbal Butt, FalconSearch.com CEO,
remarked just prior to the signing ceremony.
This new agreement confirms that Amanah Tech will provide all web hosting and
technical support for FalconSearch.com and, in turn,
FalconSearch.com
will include the value-added service to its portfolio.
Mr. Nezar Freeny, Amanah Tech CEO, commented, “We are very proud to include
FalconSearch.com
in our portfolio of clients. They have lived up to their reputation over the
past two years of negotiations, of being a progressive, forward thinking firm.
They have taken great care in selecting a hosting firm with whom they can grow
and expand their business and its services and we are thrilled to be that
partner – they have great vision and a strategy to realize these
possibilities.”
The Canadian Consulate in Dubai has played a very positive role in Amanah’s
success over the past two years and in the signing of this latest contract.
Anne Argyris, Consul and Senior Trade Commissioner, commented “We have been
pleased to provide assistance to Saskatoon-based web solutions provider Amanah
Tech and its president Mr. Nezar Freeny. Mr. Freeny is an important success
story for Canada-Dubai business. He is a young entrepreneur who is very
aggressive – not afraid of pursuing opportunities in a market that some
Canadian companies might not be aware of. We have provided him with market
information and introduced him to contacts in the region to assist him in his
business growth. This company’s success is encouraging and will also lead
other Canadian companies to look at opportunities in Dubai.”

comprehensive e-Integration of business and technology. It offers inventive
