As the school prepares to welcome its first pupils in September of this year, it also aims to bring a platform for discussion and debate amongst forward-thinking movers and shakers of the Dubai parent community. The evening’s guests gained a better understanding of what it means to be future-ready, and how to pave the way for their children to turn their interests and passions into reality. As the founding executive for the Dubai Future Foundation, and dubbed as Futurist-in-Chief, Dr Noah Raford is part of a team that identifies emerging opportunities, develops strategic partnerships, and prototypes future initiatives for the Government of Dubai. The roster of speakers could not have been a better fit for a school that has lived up to the promise of helping pupils fulfil their passions and interests, and become leaders of the future.[/vc_news_content][vc_news_content section_padding=”pt-0 pb-0″ news_images=”%5B%7B%7D%5D”]
