Top Companies in The Arab World 2015

Forbes Middle East is set to host a lavish gala dinner as it unveils the Top Companies in the Arab World 2015. The glittering event will celebrate the publicly listed companies who, through dynamic and strong leadership, are shaping the future of Arab economies and making an impact on a global scale.

The stellar evening will take place on June 9 2015, at The Oberoi, Dubai. It will include a prestigious awards ceremony, recognizing the companies that are placing homegrown Arab success on the international stage.

The  builds on FORBES’ renowned Global 2000 list, which ranks the world’s most successful publicly-listed companies. Many of this year’s entries appear on both lists—and some for the first time. To celebrate that, the evening will bring together some of the region’s most distinguished business leaders. From executive management to founding fathers, they are the people mapping not only the success of their companies, but the region’s business landscape.

Representing a range of sectors, the VIP guest list reflects the diversity of this year’s ranking and through it, the increasing diversity of Arab economies. The event will host a mix of guests from industries including banking & financial services, retail, food & beverages, telecommunications and real estate & construction.

Commenting on the rankings and upcoming event, Mrs. Khuloud Al Omian, Editor-in-Chief, Forbes Middle East, said: “The last 12 months have been full of change and challenges for Arab people and businesses. The entries on this year’s Top Companies in the Arab World 2015 are evidence of a region that perseveres through uncertainty in order to pave the road ahead.
