The Best Practices
Seminar is an opportunity for previous winners as business models to share
their ideas, standards and experiences towards pursuance of excellence in
applying for the Business Award under the framework of the Program. It also aims to highlight the importance of the
Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Business Club which encourages interaction,
learning and cooperation among its members while developing business
competitiveness, adopting global best practices and elevating their business
reputations worldwide.
Held annually under
the patronage of H.H. Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, UAE Vice President

reward the efforts of UAE-based businesses contributing to the economic
development of the country.
Aubrey Heldt and
Nayeem Syed, together with Prashant Nassery (Projects & Quality Manager)
and Rayner Mathias (Quality Coordinator) from Kanoo Travel collectively worked
as a team in this project to showcase the best practices and latest
innovations.
Over the years, this seminar has always
been supported by Kanoo Travel. The various topics shared by speakers have
helped many companies meet international standards and have aligned them in
their management techniques. This initiative has further strengthened the Kanoo
Travel’s partnership with all its stakeholders throughout the region.

Travel for the valuable contribution in the success of the event.
