First of all, I would like to thank all our employees for their excellence and commitment in helping SABIC continue to achieve its ambitions. In 2012 SABIC’s people have again proved their ability to deliver strong performance across our businesses, in the face of difficult and turbulent economic conditions. Our growth, from humble beginnings in 1976 to our position today as one of the world’s largest integrated petrochemical companies, has been rapid. And we have no intention of stopping here. with our new strategy, SABIC 2025, we have firmly set our sights on becoming the preferred world leader in chemicals. SABIC will become a more global and market-facing company, with our growth driven by differentiated solutions in sectors such as transportation, construction, electronics and packaging. we will build our strength in innovation, creating new materials and possibilities, and finding more efficient processes for bringing them to market. And we will continue to form strong partnerships with like-minded organizations to enhance SABIC’s worldwide strength and reach. Despite our global ambition, we nonetheless remain committed to our roots in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. SABIC will continue its important role in advancing the Kingdom’s industrialization program and will engage in helping Saudi Arabia to address its energy dilemma through sustainability initiatives. we plan to achieve all of this through the focused commitment of our people and our belief in their ability to create Chemistry that MattersTM – solutions and products that make the world a better place. The journey to SABIC 2025 will not be an easy one. But we have a history of taking on the toughest challenges and winning. A bold vision is what inspires SABIC people, and I have every confidence in their ability to make it a reality.

  • Public Policy for Venture Capital: a Comparative Study of Emirates
    Review of Business & Finance Studies Vol. 7, No. 1, 2016, pp. 19-42 ISSN: 2150-3338 (print) ISSN: 2156-8081 (online) www.theIBFR.com PUBLIC POLICY FOR VENTURE CAPITAL: A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF EMIRATES, SAUDI ARABIA AND EGYPT Iman Seoudi, American University in Cairo, Egypt Salma Mahmoud, American University in Cairo, Egypt ABSTRACT This study presents an integrated public policy framework for supporting the emergence of a venture capital industry, from both supply and demand perspectives. The framework is applied to the case of venture capital evolution in three Arab countries, namely United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Egypt. In each country case study, five public policy mechanisms are analyzed using both primary and secondary information. Comparative analysis of the country case studies shows that the three countries have made varying levels of progress on company registration procedures and development of an entrepreneurial ecosystem. More work is needed to simplify bankruptcy and other regulatory obstacles to venture capital funds, such as the limited partnership structure and the use of convertible stock. The three countries have limited venture capital supply from a few government and private venture capital funds, primarily due to demand side weaknesses and a meager flow of investible enterprises. Strengthening the demand side should form the primary focus of government reforms in the near future, in addition to demonstrating successful and profitable venture capital investment. The latter is a key step in putting together the

An interactive smart search and communication application can support the people at the university campus and Science Park in a number of ways. Primarily, it can strengthen their professional network and establish a responsive eco-system. Therefore, the objective of this research work is to design and implement a unified flexible and adaptable interface. This interface supports an intensive search and communication tool across the university. It would benefit everybody on campus, especially the People with Disabilities (PWDs). (2) Methods: In this project, three main contributions are presented: (A) Assistive Technology (AT) software design and implementation (based on user- and technology-centered design); (B) A wireless sensor network employed to track and determine user’s location; and (C) A novel event behavior algorithm and movement direction algorithm used to monitor and predict users’ behavior and intervene with them and their caregivers when required.

  • Ahmad Daouk : Portrait D'un Acteur De L'indépendance
    AHMAD DAOUK : PORTRAIT D’UN ACTEUR DE L’INDÉPENDANCE DU LIBAN Stéphane MALSAGNE Agrégé et Docteur en histoire de l’Université de Paris I L’auteur est historien et spécialiste de l’histoire du Liban contemporain. Agrégé et docteur en histoire de Paris I, il est enseignant à Sciences Po Paris. Il est l’auteur d’un grand nombre d’articles et d’ouvrages sur le Liban. Dans le présent article, il dresse une fresque de l’histoire libanaise au travers du portrait et de la biographie d’un grand commis de l’État libanais et d’un acteur de son indépendance. Nationaliste modéré, fidèle à ses amitiés de jeunesse, patriote, indépendantiste, homme de culture et de souplesse diplomatique, Ahmad Daouk se révèle sous la plume de Stéphane Malsagne comme incarnant le modèle d’une certaine libanité, dernier refuge du cosmopolitisme méditerranéen ouvert sur le monde – NDLR. l est des personnalités de l’histoire du Liban contemporain et des Iserviteurs de l’État souvent oubliées aujourd’hui, mais dont le parcours original a durablement marqué l’histoire nationale et celle de l’amitié franco-libanaise en particulier depuis 1943. Tel est le cas d’Ahmad Daouk (1893-1979), premier ambassadeur du Liban indépendant en France et plusieurs fois président du Conseil (en 1941-1942 et en 1960).
