Dr. Kazim, said: "This event is conceived as a platform for MBAs to come together to realise their personal and career goals through a two-way dialogue with business leaders. This approach is aligned with the objectives of the TECOM Education Cluster to develop human capital in the UAE and the region. Currently, there are 27 university campuses within Dubai International Academic City. A selection of these universities offers 26 Master-level programmes in business.
Ms Randa Bessiso, Director Middle East at Manchester Business School, which has built a community of over 1,000 MBA students and 800 alumni over five years in the region, added: "MBS is one of the very few schools enjoying triple MBA accreditation and we are very pleased that AMBA has recognized the region's emerging significance for business education by hosting its first regional event in Dubai. It reflects the fact that some of the world's leading business schools are now well established in Dubai - the region's education hub - and are playing a significant role here."
