Dubai: India's media and entertainment industries should seize investment opportunities in Dubai Studio City (DSC), a zone dedicated to film, television and music business, a senior official said.
Dubai Studio City, a member of Dubai Holding, highlighted its investment potential at a global business forum organised by the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) as part of the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) Awards 2006.
