‘Leaders Presents’ is a new division of IIR Middle East designed to provide the IIR delegate a new level of conference experience. Born from the success of the Annual Leaders in Dubai Business Forum, Leaders’ events stand out from the rest by providing a superior level of speaker, ensuring up-to-date topics and maintaining an all-around level of excellence throughout the execution of their events. The flagship event – Leaders in Dubai – is a meeting of over 1,500 of the regions’ most eminent business leaders from across all industries who come together with some of the most popular business, economic and political leaders from across the globe – to network, learn and debate on the future of business and to share their experiences. Leaders Presents has launched a number of other highly successful events recently including the acclaimed Management Innovation Forum, which was launched in 2007 and met with rave reviews, and the Middle East Business Achievement Awards which honors regional business leaders for their excellence and contribution to business. 2009 sees the development of a variety of ‘Leaders Presents’ events – all of which promise to evoke thought and creativity, and give real value to the delegates who attend. Speakers current and past at ‘Leaders Presents’ events include Colin Powell, Jack Welch, Bill Clinton, Richard Branson, Kofi Annan, Michael Porter, Her Majesty Queen Noor, Tom Peters, and Malcolm Gladwell.
