inQsights: Driving organisational transformation and nurturing new age talent

The Middle East has been leading global economic trends through resilience, optimism and continued growth. While disruptions and chaos have affected many traditionally strong economies, post-pandemic, the region has continued on the path of growth and prosperity. Global talent is also gravitating towards the region because of its progressive policies, opportunities for professional development and quality of life. Enterprises in the region are working to ensure that they are best placed to take advantage of this talent trend.
