STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP ANNOUNCEMENT We are excited to announce a Strategic Partnership with Gnubiotics Sciences SA, a global leader in AI-driven glycan solutions to decode and redirect metabolic diseases. This collaboration will bring groundbreaking glycan-based therapies to the GCC, driving advancements in healthcare, particularly in addressing obesity, diabetes, and immune-related diseases.    Gnubiotics’ recent approval of key composition of matter patents by the USPTO highlights the revolutionary potential of their glycopeptide therapeutics. These therapies harness AI to reprogram biology by targeting glycans, signaling molecules that control how cells and the immune system communicate. Gnubiotics’ Genesis AI platform decodes the glyco-code—the biological language that governs cellular interactions—and reprograms it to correct errors that lead to diseases like metabolic disorders and immune dysfunction. This cutting-edge approach has the potential to transform the treatment of complex diseases by reprogramming biological processes at their core. This partnership reflects our commitment to fostering innovation and driving economic growth through high-impact collaborations.

CELEBRATING INTERNATIONAL COFFEE DAY: GCC's GROWING POTENTIAL AS COFFEE HUB FOR GLOBAL EXPANSION As the world celebrates International Coffee Day, it’s the perfect moment to reflect on the deep cultural significance of coffee in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region, and why it’s a prime destination for global coffee companies seeking expansion. Coffee, or gahwa, has been an integral part of Arab hospitality and culture for centuries, symbolizing warmth, generosity, and social connection. This rich heritage, combined with modern trends, makes the GCC an ideal market for coffee brands looking to expand. Over the last decade, the region has experienced a surge in demand for premium coffee, artisanal brews, and a flourishing café culture, driven by a young, affluent population and a growing expatriate community. From the bustling coffee shops in Dubai to Riyadh’s thriving café scene, the coffee culture is evolving, blending tradition with modern coffee experiences. With its strategic location as a global trade hub, the GCC offers coffee companies access to both the Middle East and Africa, along with world-class logistics infrastructure. For global coffee companies, the GCC represents more than just a market—it’s an opportunity to engage with a culture that deeply values coffee as part of its identity. Whether through traditional Arabian gahwa or trendy specialty brews, coffee brands can build meaningful connections with consumers eager for high-quality, innovative coffee experiences. #coffee #gcc #sustainability #innovation #foodandbeverage #manufacture #investments
