ABU DHABI - UAE Education Minister Shaikh Nahyan bin Mubarak Al Nahyan, former US president Bill Clinton, former Pakistan prime minister Benazir Bhutto, British billionaire Sir Richard Branson and US politician John Edwards will give live speeches at the Abu Dhabi World Leaders Summit on November 15.

For the first time ever, Global Business Enterprises (GBE) and The Power Within Inc. are organising the ultimate gathering of the world's most influential political and business leaders, making their appearance live and in person on November 15, 2005 at the Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi.

Under the patronage of General Shaikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, this exclusive and extraordinary World Leadership Summit will feature an address by William Jefferson Clinton, former US president.

The Abu Dhabi World Leadership Summit will be remembered by thousands as one of the most significant and unique events ever to take place in the Middle East.

This gathering of the world's most influential and respected speakers will feature a joint effort to share strategies for excellence in leadership and international business development.

"The presentation featuring president Bill Clinton, Sir Richard Branson and three other extraordinary speakers lays the foundation for the beginning of an exciting new relationship with GBE and The Power Within Inc.," said Salim Khoja, President of Power Within Inc.

"We continue to strive to provide excellence in personal and professional development worldwide."

During this day-long conference, delegates will learn key strategies on leadership, business development, and professional improvement practices. In addition, question and answer sessions along with networking functions will provide extraordinary face-to-face business and client relation building opportunities.

"This will certainly provide Abu Dhabi with a tremendous amount of international exposure as a perfect venue for hosting world class conferences in addition to promoting Abu Dhabi as a fine tourist destination," Aqeel Bughio, General Manager Global Business Enterprises (GBE), headquartered in Abu Dhabi, said.

The objective of establishing the company was to enter into business ventures in order to create a distinct market niche while promoting culture and tourism related activities in Abu Dhabi. The idea was to specifically focus on the service industry in order to help promote Abu Dhabi's community in a unique way. The business segments which GBE has chosen, such as event management, are proof of the group's vision. GBE has formed partnerships with world class partners such as The Power Within Inc.

Other speakers will include Sir Richard Branson, flamboyant British billionaire and CEO of Virgin, Shaikh Nahayan Bin Mubarak Al Nahayan, Minister of Education and Scientific Research, and Chancellor, Higher Colleges of Technology, Benazir Bhutto, twice-elected Prime Minister of Pakistan, and John Edwards, 2004 Democratic Vice-Presidential candidate and former Senator from North Carolina.
