Abu Dhabi, UAE, March 25, 2013: Speaking at INSEAD's UAE careers fair on 24th March 2013, representatives from Tanfeeth presented its business model to an audience of MBA students.

For ambitious MBA graduates, it's an opportunity to help build a new business without any of the typical start-up risks and embark on an accelerated career path by working alongside executives from some of the world's leading management consulting organizations," said Hessa Al Ghurair, Head of Human Resources.
