DOHA, Qatar, February 17 /PRNewswire/ --
- Distributed to the Forbes Global 2000, the Official Networking Guide is
shaping up as the comprehensive guide to the Arab World's most successful
companies and senior executives
Organizers today announced an extended March 1st deadline for regional
bookings for corporate features in the Official Networking Guide, an
invaluable resource that maximizes networking potential between key global
and regional corporations and the successful executives at their helms.
The guide, which provides essential information on the
Arab World's most
progressive companies and its leading Chairmen, Presidents and Chief
Executive Officers, will be distributed in late March to delegates of the
upcoming Forbes CEO Middle East Forum, distinguished speakers, international
press and the prestigious Forbes Global 2000, Forbes' comprehensive ranking
of the world's 2,000 largest companies spanning 51 countries and 27
industries.
"The Official Networking Guide is rightfully recognized as a precise and
intensely targeted PR tool for the region's most successful corporations; it
essentially delivers your company information and CEO's biography straight
into the hands of the Forbes Global 2000, decision-makers who are keen to
identify opportunities for regional investment and foster strategic business
relationships in one of the most dynamic growth markets in the world -- the
Middle East," said Louise Saade, Director of Marketing, Sponsorships and PR
for the Forbes CEO Middle East Forum.
With an introduction by Steve Forbes, the guide contains special reports,
viewpoints and editorial on some of the key agenda topics that will be
debated at the Forbes CEO Middle East Forum -- Real Estate, Luxury Retail,
Energy, Telecoms, Financial Services, Sport, Family Business and Human
Capital; and ensures the delivery of regional business intelligence and each
participating company's profile, CEO biography, and contact information
direct to the world's most influential corporate executives.
The Forbes CEO Middle East Forum is held under the patronage of the Emir
of Qatar, H.H. Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, and will take place at the
