Mohammed bin Rashid Leadership Forum to bring 1,000 leaders to Dubai

The Mohammed bin Rashid Leadership Forum will bring together 1,000 government and private-sector leaders at Dubai World Trade Centre on Wednesday.

Held under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, the annual event will focus on the future of government and institutional leadership.

Discussions will cover the development of future cities, emerging economic opportunities and the use of technologies including artificial intelligence to improve working practices.

The forum will also see the Mohammed bin Rashid Leadership Medal presented to a Dubai government Director-General. The award was launched at last year's event to recognise and encourage leadership development within government.

The programme includes panel discussions, workshops and leadership sessions covering the future economy, future cities and changing global trends.

The Mohammed bin Rashid Center for Leadership Development will also sign agreements with several international universities covering leadership research and studies.
