Global cooperation, leadership vital in fight against coronavirus: Sheikh Mohamed

Abu Dhabi - The UAE leader praised Mubadala for helping build the country's non-oil economy.

His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, has stated that "Our founding father, the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, laid out a pioneering vision for the UAE, grounded in the values of cooperation, human development and sustainability.''
Sheikh Mohamed said that this vision and UAE's role as a globally engaged nation has never been more critical as the international community comes together to confront the Covid-19 pandemic.
"Global cooperation and leadership must take precedence as we work together to recover from the health and economic impact caused by the coronavirus. The challenges society now faces underscores the belief that global investors such as Mubadala Investment Company perform an even more vital role in driving positive change through investing at home and internationally for a sustainable future,'' said Sheikh Mohamed in his foreword to the Mubadala's 2019 Annual Review.
"Under the guidance of His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, Mubadala has helped build our non-oil economy, expanded our global presence, and cultivated a new generation of Emirati leaders. Our national vision for the next fifty years is even more ambitious and will see Mubadala investing and partnering at the leading edge of global growth and innovation to create opportunities for future generations.
"In doing so," Sheikh Mohammed added, "Mubadala will continue to be a reliable and resilient investment partner to the world, creating value where it operates and investing across sectors that enable global progress.
He further said that 2019 was a pivotal year for Mubadala, "and we are deeply proud of its evolution and stature as a trusted and future-focused organisation."
"We would not have achieved such growth and success without the continuous hard work and commitment of every single Mubadala employee and their colleagues within our global network of partners. It is a reminder that Mubadala's greatest strength and vast potential will always be its people,'' said Sheikh Mohamed.
