DUBAI, UAE - October 23, 2023 - Respond.io, a pioneering customer conversation management software provider, successfully concluded its debut at GITEX Global 2023\. GITEX Global is one of the world's largest tech exhibitions, hosted at the Dubai World Trade Center from October 16th to 20th, attracting an estimated attendance of 180,000 participants over 5 days.

In conjunction with the event, respond.io showcased Respond AI, which handles tasks ranging from adjusting messages to fit a brand’s tone to generating responses using information from a client's knowledge base. Respond AI works together with state-of-the-art chat automation, flexible integrations and a comprehensive reporting module to fulfill all customer communication needs.

We are heartened by the positive response from the Middle East market and remain committed to actively contributing to the region's growth through our innovative solutions, which empower businesses, elevate customer experiences, foster growth and enhance operational efficiency across diverse sectors," said respond.io CEO Gerardo Salandra.

During the exhibition, Salandra delivered forward-looking insights in his discourse on _Conversational AI: How GenAI and LLM are Redefining the Landscape of Global Business Conversations_.
