About the Event

Middle East 2026 GCCM & SIS'26 Summit

The Middle East GCCM is Carrier Community's annual gathering for the Gulf region's telecom community, now in its 13th year. Held at The Wave in Muscat, it brings together wholesale carriers, mobile operators, messaging companies and connectivity providers from across the Middle East and internationally.

Like the other Carrier Community GCCM events, it is built around bilateral meetings — commercial conversations between carriers working regional and international traffic. The four-day programme also includes networking, an exhibition and industry discussions covering voice, SMS and regional connectivity developments.

Industry Context

Why this event matters

The Middle East is a significant market for international voice — high call volumes between the Gulf states and South Asia, Southeast Asia and other diaspora markets make it commercially important for wholesale carriers. The GCCM in Muscat draws the regional carrier community together and provides a structured environment for the meetings that drive those commercial relationships. For companies working Gulf routes, this is the event where the relevant decisions tend to happen.

At the Event

Why meet EaseDial
in Muscat?

Middle Eastern routes have specific characteristics — regulatory requirements, local operator relationships and quality considerations that vary by country. Meeting in Muscat gives us the chance to talk through your specific requirements for the Gulf, whether that's termination quality, coverage across the GCC or SMS routing. Four days gives us enough time to have a proper conversation.
