Questions we get from buyers before they book
How do I request a founder interview?
Email info@creativebroadcast.ae with topic, outlet, publication date, and format (written, phone, video). Standard response within one business day. Chris McDonnell is available for scheduled interviews on 48-hour notice; same-day availability on request for breaking industry news.
Can I use CBA credentials (COP28, IRENA, SPL, EWC) in coverage?
Yes. These are on the record and verified. Please attribute delivery scope accurately (e.g. "CBA delivered broadcast production for COP28 UN Climate Conference in Dubai across 13 days, 198 countries" — accurate; not "CBA is the UN broadcast partner" — inaccurate generalisation). Contact info@ for scope confirmation on any specific engagement.
Are there client names beyond the verified list?
Yes. Named CBA clients across MENA operate under NDA and are not publicly disclosed. On-record CBA clients are limited to the verified list (COP28, IRENA, Saudi Pro League, Esports World Cup, Dubai Esports Festival 2026). This is a policy of professional discretion, not scope limitation.
Where can I download high-resolution brand assets?
Currently on request via info@creativebroadcast.ae — a self-serve press-assets page is on the roadmap. Please specify format (SVG, PNG, PDF), variant (orange-on-white, reversed white-on-dark), and use case (article inline, social share, press release, print).
Does CBA issue press releases via wire services?
Selectively. Major product launches, verified credential additions, and headline case studies go through PR Newswire or equivalent. Wire copies land in info@creativebroadcast.ae's outbox — request the current release calendar to align coverage.
Is there a media-comms lead separate from Chris?
Not currently. All media enquiries route through info@creativebroadcast.ae. Chris is the spokesperson for founder-level interviews; operational or technical enquiries are triaged to the appropriate CBA team member as needed.
