Dr Michael Haidinger, Chief Sales Officer at Rolls-Royce Power Systems, said: "With our new sales and service centre in Dubai, we are seeking to leverage the huge potential that markets in the Middle East and North Africa carry, and to drive forward our business there in an even more targeted way."
