The sessions were chaired by Mr. Karim Al-Khoja, a member of the Chamber's bureau and head of the committee, in the presence of Mr. Waseem Saad, the Chamber's director. These interviews formed an initial dialogue space to link the energy and enthusiasm of youth with the experience and wisdom of veteran industrialists, contributing to building a promising generation of young industrialists for the days to come.Discussions centered around training the new generation to participate in future economic decision-making. Interactive questions and themes were directed at the applicants, focusing on the nature and scale of their current productive industrial activities, as well as their knowledge and familiarity with the laws governing economic and industrial movement in the country.
