A Visit That Became a Module 6 Highlight
24 Jun 2025

Module 6 came with an unexpected highlight. During a midday break, NEP 4.0 experts were joined by H.E. Saeed Al Zaabi, Adviser to the Deputy Chairman of the Presidential Court for Development and Fallen Heroes’ Affairs, whose unannounced visit turned into a meaningful moment of exchange and reflection.

Gathering informally, H.E. Saeed Al Zaabi took a personal interest in each expert’s sectoral focus—asking questions, sharing perspectives, and listening intently. What began as a casual encounter quickly evolved into a rich dialogue, with NEP experts speaking candidly about their ambitions and challenges.

Though brief, the visit left a lasting impression. It energized the room, validated the cohort’s ongoing efforts, and brought a welcome reminder of the power of genuine engagement. For many, it was a standout moment in an already transformative module.
