Our focus on public-private partnerships allows us to drive key initiatives that address local challenges while creating opportunities for global collaboration. Through our councils on technology, renewable energy, trade, culture, and youth empowerment, we are fostering an environment where ideas flourish, innovation thrives, and real change is achieved.
