Intelligent SME - December - January 2014

In dieser Ausgabe

As the curtains comes down on 2013, it’s time for us to pause and reflect at the achievements, failures and investigate companies that have been rewarded for translating concepts into solid profits. In an exclusive coverage, the ISME team has put together a mixed bag of most admired companies that have used human capital, corporate governance, international orientation, innovation and financial growth to their advantage.

In addition, we have also done an in-depth report on the man and the team behind the widely respected quality stamp for SMEs in the region, the Dubai SME 100 rankings. We also had an enlightening experience while investigating the assessment processes, benefits proposed for companies to realise their true potential post earning a rank, et al.

Lastly, the eleventh edition of the Emirates NBD Global Business Series bore witness to profound insights from the corporate youth icon of Dubai, Ahmed Bin Sulayem (executive director at the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre). Running the biggest free zone in Dubai at an age of 35, he’s a visionary with lots of plans for growth and development, not just for himself or the free zone that he administers, but the entire UAE. We hope it makes for an interesting read.
