Albloushi
said: “The upcoming UK forum is an important step that will bring us closer to
our ultimate goal of creating the country’s leaders and innovators of tomorrow.
This is in line with the STF’s mission to enhance the capabilities of our youth
in line with the demands of modern times and in the midst of the UAE’s
fast-paced adoption of a knowledge- and innovation-driven economic framework.
Our partnership with the University of Cambridge comes at an opportune time
when there is a global need for forward-looking and innovative leaders, and the
forum is one of the best means to effectively and efficiently achieve this
end.”

Bin Karam added: “We are excited about the learning
opportunities that the UK forum will bring to our 30 young participants and how
these will eventually impact their leadership skills. For one, they will be
given a chance to interact with distinguished
pioneers and veterans in the technology sector and learn from them the latest
best practices that can help accelerate the adoption of innovative leadership
in Sharjah and the UAE as a whole. This international forum will also serve as
an effective tool towards pushing the country’s smart transformation efforts by
acquiring the needed skills to support such an important transition. Aside from
lectures, workshops will be held during the event as well to gain the
participants’ insights and ideas. We look forward to optimizing these
opportunities for the benefit of our SLP leaders.”

innovation, leadership, entrepreneurship, and support for novel projects that
serve as key tools towards comprehensive development, stimulating community
outreach, volunteer work, and Corporate Social Responsibility. The forum also
seeks to promote fruitful cooperation with major consulting firms, research
centers, and international and local universities to ensure the improvement of
future generations in the field of leadership and management.
