Mishal Kanoo’s Message for UAE’s 52nd National Day

 

The 52nd UAE National Day is not just a date on the calendar; it's a cherished moment that resonates with the beating heart of every one of us.

This special day isn't just about marking the years passed; it's about recognizing the incredible journey that has shaped the United Arab Emirates into the vibrant nation it is today. It's a celebration of leadership, determination, and ambition—values that inspire us to give back, show generosity, and pour our hearts into the work that builds our beloved homeland.

Let's take a moment to journey back to the beginnings led by the visionary Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan and the founding fathers. Their dedication and dream birthed a union that stands tall today, showcasing to the world the remarkable development that started in sync with the birth of the UAE on December 02 and 03, 1971.

This celebration isn't just an annual ritual; it's a reflection on the nation's incredible achievements, both locally and on the global stage. In just over five decades, the UAE has become a beacon of success, a model for the world, and a symbol of development, safety, and security.

The Kanoo Group's journey in UAE, initiated around the same time as this young nation by my father, mirrors the spirit of the UAE's vision. As we grew alongside the country, we carry an exciting vision forward, promising to evolve and thrive in the years to come.

With each passing National Day, we find ourselves not only celebrating our organization's achievements but also gearing up for even greater strides. It's a time to encourage creative thinking and set the stage for the next chapter of success.

Today, we renew our pledge to stay loyal to this land and its visionary leaders. Their guidance has led us to prosperity and welfare, and we commit to building a brighter future for generations to come.

Our gratitude extends to Allah for blessing us with leaders who tirelessly raise the UAE flag, bringing prosperity and happiness to all. On this occasion, we send our heartfelt wishes and congratulations to our leadership and the people of the UAE. We pray for the continued success and prosperity of our beloved land.

May the United Arab Emirates continue to thrive in peace, stability, and progress.

Gulf Superyacht Summit 2023

The Gulf Superyacht Summit recently concluded its second edition at the Hilton Abu Dhabi, Yas Island, in November. Under the esteemed patronage of P&O Marinas, the two-day summit aimed to enlighten, assist, and advise yachting enthusiasts and stakeholders. The overarching goal was to position the Gulf as a premier winter superyacht destination.

Abdullatif Kanoo of The Kanoo Group, who attended and graced the summit, said, “We are very grateful for the summit's initiatives, including a superyacht strategy encompassing industry requirements, destination appeal, and regulatory ease that highlighted how we could further assist Kanoo Yacht Services to its full potential in offering unmatched services for superyachts in the region. The emphasis placed on addressing challenges, leveraging opportunities, and championing sustainable practices and amenities for the yacht industry's sustainable growth is essential for our industry to be able to fully deliver top-notch services."

The yachting landscape has undergone a profound transformation in the last decade, witnessing an influx of larger and more renowned yachts. Industry experts foresee tremendous potential in the region, provided the GCC harmonizes rules and regulations to facilitate seamless cruising across borders.

Angelo Marcantonio, Commercial Manager at Kanoo Shipping, said, “Over the past seven years, the Middle East has witnessed a staggering increase in superyachts (30 m+) presence, with 150 forecasted maxi yachts gracing its waters in 2023. This nearly twofold rise in yachts broadcasting AIS signals signifies a burgeoning interest in the region. Recognizing this great potential in the region, Kanoo Yacht Services offers seamless yacht services catering to yachts and mega-yachts, ensuring smooth operations in the whole Middle East and beyond.”

“The Middle East's allure as a superyacht haven lies in its favorable geography and extensive cruising season, spanning from October to May,” said John Drinkwater, Vice President of Kanoo Shipping. “Beyond this, the Middle East's rich history, vibrant culture, and diverse recreational offerings solidify its position as a destination for unforgettable recreation. Collaborative efforts among GCC states to standardize regulations, streamline visa processes, and enhance infrastructure further attract high-net-worth individuals,” he added.

As the region gears up to host an increasing number of superyachts, Kanoo Yacht Services becomes pivotal in navigating the complexities of immigration procedures, ensuring a smoother process for entry and exit permits. Kanoo Yacht Services are also instrumental in obtaining spare parts and coordinating essential services.

Jonathan Bygrave, Chief Executive Officer at Kanoo Shipping, added, “The Gulf Superyacht Summit 2023 spotlights the region's untouched beauty and breathtaking scenery, and as we at Kanoo Shipping recognize the competitive landscape of the region, there is a growing need for a trusted and reliable company like our Kanoo Yacht Services that understands these ongoing challenges. Voyage management, planning, and delivering top-notch services for yachts and superyachts on the ground are crucial to attracting more units in the years to come.”

In the dynamic landscape of superyachts, Kanoo Yacht Services emerges as a key player, ensuring that every voyage is not just a journey but an extraordinary experience for everyone.

Celebrating Courage - Kanoo Travel Dubai's 'Wear Pink to Work' for Breast Cancer Awareness Month

In a spirited demonstration of solidarity and commitment, Kanoo Travel Dubai commemorated Breast Cancer Awareness Month by organizing a meaningful event on October 12, 2023. Under the leadership of Aubrey Heldt, General Manager of Kanoo Travel, the staff came together to raise awareness and show their support for those affected by breast cancer.

To honor Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the first IATA member travel agency in the GCC and a prominent force within the Middle East's travel industry designated the 12th of October as 'Wear Pink to Work' Day, inviting employees to don their best shades of pink. This symbolic gesture aimed to celebrate the survivors' resilience and extend empathy to those presently fighting the battle against breast cancer. The initiative included the distribution of pink ribbons to all staff members, adorning the office with pink decorations, and the provision of delectable, pink-themed cake and doughnuts.

During a brief gathering, informative materials were shared with the staff. These materials were also circulated through email to ensure that everyone was well-informed about the early symptoms of breast cancer. Emphasis was placed on encouraging women to seize the opportunity for free clinical breast examinations and mammogram screenings available throughout the UAE. Additionally, the staff was educated on the importance of regular self-examinations at home, underscoring the significance of early detection.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month, celebrated every October, is a pivotal annual campaign dedicated to shedding light on the prevalence and impact of breast cancer. With more than 2.3 million new cases reported annually, breast cancer is the most common cancer worldwide. Alarmingly, in 95% of countries, breast cancer ranks as the leading or second-leading cause of female cancer-related fatalities. A salient fact that cannot be overlooked is that being female is the most pronounced risk factor for breast cancer.

Aubrey Heldt, the General Manager of Kanoo Travel Dubai, remarked, "Our 'Wear Pink to Work' Day and associated activities were an endeavor to join the global community in the fight against breast cancer. By raising awareness and promoting early detection, we can save lives and support those impacted by this disease. Our team's dedication and participation testify to our commitment to social responsibility."

Kanoo Travel Dubai continues to champion social causes and actively engage with the community meaningfully. As Breast Cancer Awareness Month extends throughout October, the company stands firmly in its resolve to spread awareness and encourage proactive health measures to combat this prevalent disease.
