inoRain Wraps Up CABSAT 2026 in Dubai

inoRain Wraps Up Three Days at CABSAT 2026 in Dubai

inoRain exhibited at CABSAT 2026, held 5-7 October 2026 at the Dubai Exhibition Centre (DEC) in Expo City Dubai. Across three days at Stand H1-F55, the team met broadcasters, telecom operators and streaming businesses from the Middle East, Africa and South Asia to show how platforms can launch, scale and monetise video services on a single end-to-end OTT stack.

CABSAT is one of the region’s main meeting points for the broadcast, satellite and media-tech industry. For inoRain, it was the second major trade show in a month, following IBC 2026 in Amsterdam.

What we brought to Dubai

Ahead of the show, CABSAT welcomed inoRain as an exhibitor and featured Armen Hakobyan, CTO and Co-Founder of inoRain, introducing what the team would present. Three themes led the stand:

  • Micro-drama short apps. Vertical, episodic video built for mobile viewing, with the video processing, CMS, smart feeds and monetisation a micro-drama service needs to launch quickly.
  • FAST channels with SSAI. 24/7 ad-supported linear channels built from an existing VOD library, with server-side ad insertion stitched into the stream so ads play smoothly and are harder to block.
  • End-to-end streaming technology. Everything a platform needs to launch, grow and turn streaming into a revenue driver, from content management and multi-device apps to delivery and analytics.

Day by day

Day 1 – 5 October. The show opened with a strong start at the stand, welcoming visitors and exchanging ideas with broadcast and streaming leaders about where the industry is heading. Day 2 – 6 October. A full day of client meetings, live product demos and conversations with industry leaders, many of them focused on how to add new revenue lines to existing video services. Day 3 – 7 October. The final day closed out an intense run of client meetings and conversations with broadcast and streaming decision-makers.

Why the region matters

The Middle East and wider CABSAT audience includes telecom operators, pay-TV providers and broadcasters that already own valuable content and subscriber relationships. Many are now looking at FAST, micro-drama and hybrid monetisation models to grow revenue without building technology from scratch. inoRain’s white-label approach lets these businesses launch under their own brand, keep control of their audience data and choose the monetisation mix that fits their market: subscriptions, advertising, pay-per-view or a hybrid of all three.
