As the Founder and Chief Editor of The Arabian Leaders, my mission is clear — to spotlight the brilliance of Arab leadership and creativity across every field.
After a career in international media, including time as a BBC anchor, I launched this platform to amplify stories that rarely get told: those of emerging leaders, bold thinkers, and cultural pioneers from our region.
I believe the Arab world is full of extraordinary voices that deserve global recognition. Through our features, interviews, and signature awards, we are helping turn those voices into legacies.
Whether you’re a rising entrepreneur, established executive, or young changemaker — this platform is your stage.
Welcome to The Arabian Leaders — where leadership meets legacy.
My dream is to see Arabian Leaders Media Group UK become the No.1 Arab-led media house across the GCC, and to proudly stand as the global face of Arab excellence, identity, and innovation.
We aim to break barriers, tell stories that matter, and become the trusted voice of Arabs around the world — across leadership, youth, fashion, culture, and entrepreneurship.
Whether it’s through Arabian Leaders Magazine, the Arabian Jewel Awards, or platforms like Young Arabia and Fashion Tree, we are building more than a media brand — we are building a legacy.
