SHUAA Network, in partnership with IPC for Institutional Transformation, held its first virtual forum, bringing together a select group of experts and representatives from governmental and non-governmental organizations, the private sector, and universities across several Arab and African countries. During the forum, Mr. Fathi Abdul Qader, Chairman of the Board of SHUAA Network, outlined the rationale behind founding the network and its vision for expanding work across Africa. The forum also featured two panel discussions: one on how ready managers are to hand over the keys of management to artificial intelligence, and another on lessons learned from the NEOM project in digital engineering and smart cities.
