Dubai: The UAE Society of Engineers, in association with the Gulf Engineering Union, is set to launch the 25th Gulf Engineering Forum in the UAE in February 2024. The theme of the Forum is “Smart Engineering for a Sustainable Future.”
The announcement was made during a press conference held at the headquarters of the UAE Society of Engineers in Dubai. It was attended by Eng. Abdullah Yousef Al Ali, President of the UAE Society of Engineers, and Eng. Mohamed Ali Alkhozaae, Secretary-General of the Gulf Engineering Union.
The hosting of the forum aligns with the directives of the UAE, its strategies, and national projects aimed at achieving leadership, quality, and excellence. It also seeks to promote a culture of innovation for comprehensive and sustainable development across various sectors.
“The wise leadership in the UAE places great emphasis on the engineering sector, as it works hard to provide all necessary resources and support to national talents and develop human capital in related institutions and companies, in addition to creating well-thought-out plans and strategies. This commitment has enabled the country to make steady steps towards raising awareness about sustainability issues across diverse fields.
