SIDE-STEPPING THE deliberation that encumbers most incumbents, Al Ibrahim is successfully driving the MBC Group – the region’s largest media and entertainment company. Last year, MBC launched its 20th channel, from one back in 1991, along with two radio stations, a video-on-demand portal and a social media footprint exceeding 181 million people. The company’s venture capital arm MBC Ventures also continues to be active in the startup scene.
