The AIM Congress, currently underway in Abu Dhabi, showcased a dynamic exchange of visionary ideas and strategic insights during the AIM Startup and Unicorns Track sessions. These sessions, featuring esteemed moderators and panellists, unveiled groundbreaking perspectives and transformative opportunities across various industries. The “Middle East Unicorns Conclave: Unicorns and Mobility Industry” session, moderated by Mohamed Nagaty, illuminated the evolving landscape of unicorns and the mobility industry. Mohamed Ezzat of Tech Logistics (Bosta), Salman bin Mohammed Al Suhaibaney of Morni, Maan Khalid Eshagi of Professional Wealth Management Venture Capital, and Faisal Hilal, CEO of Ahlan, shared their expertise.
