ME 101 Opening Session: Transformations in the Reforming Economies of the Gulf
Manage episode 436624788 series 2987710
MEI in collaboration with the SUSS DBA Alumni Graduate Student Community (DBAC) and the SUSS School of Business
Throughout history, the Middle East has been at the forefront of global change, engaging with the West through crusades, wars, colonialism, and terrorism. Beyond these familiar narratives lies a region undergoing profound economic transformation, cultural evolution, and facing pressing environmental challenges. This lecture series will examine these key aspects and drivers of change, with an emphasis on how these transformations impact regional stability and present significant economic opportunities, particularly for Singapore’s strategic interests.
This year, we are excited to introduce a new format for the ME 101 series in collaboration with the SUSS DBA Alumni Graduate Student Community (DBAC) and the SUSS School of Business. The series is specifically designed for top business leaders and professionals who are interested in exploring the economic potential that the Middle East holds.
The opening lecture addresses the socio-economic changes in the Gulf Arab states, why Singapore is interested in these transformations, and the extent to which the oil monarchies have diversified their economies. Intertwined with economic ambitions are social policies which aim to create appealing living and work environments for expatriates. Profiling on the global stage also constitutes a foreign policy goal, whether it is through the hosting of mega-events, or through investments in sport. More than weaning themselves off oil and gas, the Gulf leaderships are also diversifying their international partnerships, turning away from the West and looking elsewhere, particularly
the East.
