“I believe the Gulf’s success has been built on visionary leadership, long-term thinking and a willingness to embrace change. The region recognised early that sustainable growth required far more than natural resources. It invested heavily in world-class infrastructure, connectivity, education and policy that foster innovation while attracting global talent and investment. As a second-generation family business, one of the biggest lessons we’ve learned is that while markets, technologies and customer expectations continue to evolve, the fundamentals of good business remain constant. Trust, integrity and long-term relationships are invaluable, particularly in our industry where partnerships are built over decades rather than individual transactions. Another important lesson has been the need to continually evolve. Petrochem Middle East has grown alongside the region by investing in our people, infrastructure and capabilities while remaining focused on delivering value to our customers. I believe the next 30 years will be defined by people. Investing in local talent, championing innovation and creating opportunities for the next generation of business leaders will be just as important as investing in infrastructure.”
