BRIDGE Summit shapes the future of media
Ali Abdeldaym directs official film for BRIDGE Summit 2025, the world’s largest debut media event.
Commercial film director Ali Abdeldaym has directed the official summit film for BRIDGE Summit 2025, the world’s largest debut media event, held in Abu Dhabi, UAE, from December 8 to 10, 2025.
BRIDGE Summit is a first of its kind global platform that brings together the full spectrum of media and entertainment industries under one roof. Acting as both a conference and an exhibition, the event gathers creators, brands, leaders, and decision makers from across media, entertainment, technology, and culture, positioning itself as a central hub for collaboration and future focused dialogue.
The film, which premiered at the opening of the summit, served as the official visual statement of BRIDGE 2025. It aired across TV, digital platforms, and on ground screens throughout the event, setting the tone for the three day experience.

For Abdeldaym, the project was both ambitious and fast paced. From brief to final delivery, the entire production was completed in under ten days. The process involved assembling a top tier crew, casting a diverse range of talent, and building multiple studio setups from scratch, followed by an accelerated shoot and post production schedule.
“It was one of those projects that’s challenging and fun at the same time,” says Abdeldaym. “Everything had to come together very quickly. The crew, the cast, the sets, the shoot, and post production all happened in a very tight window. That pressure made the experience exciting, and I genuinely enjoyed every part of it.”
Conceptually, the film reflects the core idea behind BRIDGE Summit, connection. Through a dynamic, idea driven narrative, the film visualises how BRIDGE brings together different industries, disciplines, and creative worlds in one place, enabling ideas to meet, evolve, and turn into real collaborations.
The result is a fast moving, energetic piece that captures the scale, ambition, and spirit of BRIDGE Summit, positioning it as a new global destination for the future of media and entertainment.
