Yalla! - August/September '24

Bu konuda

Welcome to the August-September issue of Yalla! magazine. Summer is usually a quiet time for exhibitions and events, but September brings a busy schedule. We have INDEX Saudi, Gulfood Green & Agrotech, the Oman Airshow, and more in our exhibition calendar.

In Expo Experiences, Sam Jewers shares her insights on exhibiting at Middle East Rail and the Airport Show. Jewers Doors is a British manufacturer of industrial and aircraft hangar doors.

Charlotte Melia is the Founder of Dazzle & Fizz, a rapidly growing events studio established in 2013. Despite facing significant challenges during the pandemic, including a reduction in team size from 8 to 3 and a 95% revenue drop, they have since expanded their team tenfold.

We catch-up with Alexandre Katrangi and Irina Duisimbekova, who previously featured as The Founders of Licorne Gulf. A year later, their investment firm remains ambitious and busy as ever.

Giulia Cibotti Bishop of the British Chamber of Commerce, highlights how founders can attract skilled professionals by offering flexible working options, particularly for those looking to return after a career break.

Bestselling author Amy Chambers offers insights for confidently reentering the workforce after a career break, a common experience for many. She shares valuable lessons to help navigate this transition smoothly.

And Corina Goetz brings us up to speed with the latest developments across the Arabian Gulf, with lots of news from Saudi, in particular.

We finish with a project from the mecs Portfolio. Saxo Bank partnered with mecs for Gulf localisation, graphic design in English and Arabic, and print management for their regional Head Office. We delivered various marketing materials, including stationery, display banners, flyers, brochures, product factsheets, and regional ads in The Sunday Times and The Economist.

Enjoy!
