BIAS Expands Thought Leadership Conference for 2024 Airshow

 


The Bahrain International Airshow (BIAS) is working with business leaders to improve its thought leadership conference program for the 2024 event, following the great success of its debut conference in 2022. The 2022 Bahrain International Aerospace Symposium (BIAS) focused on important issues in the aerospace, aviation, and space industries and how they relate to the Kingdom of Bahrain and the surrounding area. The event had an impressive speaker lineup, featuring well-known individuals like Heidi Grant, President of Business Development at Boeing, and Captain Waleed Al Alawi, CEO of Gulf Air.

BIAS is carefully selecting the program for the 2024 event in association with Kallman Worldwide, the Manama Air Power Symposium, and important partners such as NSSA. The program will cover four topics over two days: Diversity & Inclusion, Defense, Space, and Airlines & Airports. The study will delve into various subjects such as technological innovation, sustainability, infrastructure investment needs, international collaboration in sustainable space operations, Middle Eastern commercial space launches, advancements in gender equality in the industry, and developments in sustainable aviation fuels in the EMEA region.

The BIAS is still a popular venue for networking and business prospects in the area in addition to its extensive conference. More than half of the opulent exhibitor chalets have already been reserved, according to the BIAS Supreme Organizing Committee. Notable businesses such as Lockheed Martin, Rolls-Royce, Thales, and Gulf Air have already secured their spots. In light of the airshow's crucial position in the industry, Yousif Mohamed Mahmoud, Director General of the Bahrain International Airshow Group, stressed the significance of ongoing investments from international and regional aerospace leaders in the event. The recently revealed corporate identity highlights Bahrain's status as a center for aerospace innovation and worldwide trade, which the 2024 event is expected to uphold. Global leaders will be welcomed to Bahrain.

Exposing the Brotherhood: Why Jordan’s Terror Cell Bust Must Spark a Global Policy Shift

 The recent dismantling of a Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated terror cell in Jordan should not be seen as just a national security success—it must be a turning point in how the international community views and responds to the threat posed by the Brotherhood. Jordanian security forces uncovered an elaborate network of terrorists trained in Lebanon and backed by foreign interests. Their mission: to launch attacks using rockets and drones, destabilizing the Kingdom and spreading fear among civilians. This is not the work of activists or political dissidents—this is terrorism, plain and simple. For too long, the Muslim Brotherhood has operated under a false image of moderation, cleverly navigating between political activism and violent extremism. But the truth is clear: the Brotherhood is the ideological engine room of jihadist terrorism. Its members, affiliates, and offshoots have inspired and directed acts of violence from North Africa to the Gulf—and now, once again, in Jordan. Govern...

UAE Introduces AI-Driven Drones for Crescent Moon Sighting

  For the first time in history, the UAE is employing artificial intelligence-powered drones to sight the crescent moon, signaling the start of Ramadan. This modernized approach blends technology with Islamic tradition, enhancing the reliability of moon sighting methods. Historically, the crescent moon has been identified through naked-eye sightings and advanced astronomical calculations. By incorporating AI-supported drones, the UAE is reinforcing its position as a leader in technological innovation while maintaining deep respect for religious customs. This method is backed by national research centers and astronomical observatories, ensuring precision and credibility in determining the start of Ramadan. Ramadan is a sacred month in Islam, marked by fasting from dawn to dusk. Suhoor, the early morning meal, and Iftar, the evening meal that breaks the fast, hold great importance during this period. The holy month is also a time of increased charitable giving, with many Muslims part...

Beyond the Barrel: The UAE's Steady Hand in a Shifting Global Economy

  Global economic rankings often highlight familiar names, but a steady, deliberate climb is happening in the Gulf. The UAE consistently ranks as one of the most economically stable nations, and this validation stems from a steady reform model that has successfully insulated its economy. The story is no longer about oil wealth; it's about the strategic deployment of that wealth to build a resilient, modern, and dynamic knowledge economy. The proof is in the sectors now driving growth.  Tech startups  are flourishing in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, supported by government venture funds and a growing pool of talent.  Smart cities  like Masdar City and NEOM are not just futuristic concepts but active testbeds for sustainable living and business. This has triggered record  FDI inflows , with the UAE securing its position as the 16th largest global destination for foreign direct investment. The narrative is supported by hard data: a GDP growth projection of 4.6% in 2025...
