Furthermore, this kind of business venture is in line with our visions for the future of Sharjah to position it as an emirate with a diverse economy and entrepreneurship potential.
“Connected Circles has a mission to revolutionize how leaders communicate with key stakeholders in the digital age,” said Galimir Dilkin, Co-Founder of Connected Circles. “We believe that top-level executives should be more visible and accessible, while approaching their communication with a personalized touch through meaningful conversations.
