Vinay T, head of Business Development at Alain Charles Events, commented, “We identified a need to access the latest safety solutions for the workforce across the board, which led us to create this exclusive platform for HSE companies to display and demonstrate their services and solutions to key players in the region. This is also a premier opportunity to build new relationships and network in person with the MENA HSE community.”
Saleh Al Balushi, head of HSE at Drydocks World, a Dubai World company, who will be speaking at the event, commented, “A lot of big names and companies are participating in the Forum, so this is a very important initiative for myself and others to communicate and share best practices, knowledge, experience and technology altogether in one place, as well as to discuss the challenges. It is great to have the opportunity to meet new people and interact in the coffee breaks. It’s a golden opportunity to share knowledge and learn from each other.”
