الرياض: 31 أكتوبر

اختتم مستشفى الملك فيصل التخصصي ومركز الأبحاث، اليوم الثلاثاء، مشاركته في ملتقى الصحة العالمي 2023، الذي أقيم بالعاصمة الرياض من الفترة 29-31 أكتوبر، تحت شعار “استثمر في الصحة”، تعرّف خلالها الزوار على أبرز الابتكارات والحلول الصحية التي احتضنها جناح “التخصصي” بالمعرض المصاحب، وأثرها في تعزيز مستوى نتائج الرعاية الصحية وتجربة المريض.

وشهد الملتقى الذي يشارك فيه “التخصصي” كشريك استراتيجي صحي، إلقاء معالي الرئيس التنفيذي لمستشفى الملك فيصل التخصصي ومركز الأبحاث الدكتور ماجد الفياض كلمة حول السياحة العلاجية، حيث أشار إلى سعي المملكة إلى تعزيز السياحة العلاجية، والانتقال من مصدّر للسياحة العلاجية إلى استقبال 5% من الذين يسافرون للخارج لتلقي العلاج على مستوى العالم، لما تملكه المملكة من مقومات، تسهم في ترسيخ مكانتها كدولة رائدة على ذلك الصعيد.

وأوضح رئيس الاتصال المؤسسي والتسويق في مستشفى الملك فيصل التخصصي ومركز الأبحاث الأستاذ مهند عبد الله قاضي أن مشاركة “التخصصي” في ملتقى الصحة العالمي 2023 تأتي في إطار توثيق جسور التواصل مع المؤسسات الصحية المحلية والعالمية، واستعراض أبرز ابتكاراتنا وحلولنا الصحية، وتعزيز مكانة التخصصي كمؤسسة صحية رائدة عالمياً، وتقديم صورة مشرفة عن الرعاية الصحية في المملكة.

وعلى هامش ملتقى الصحة العالمي 2023؛ وقّع “التخصصي” ست مذكرات تفاهم مع جهات محلية وعالمية في مجالات الابتكار الصحي والاستدامة وإطالة العمر الصحي والتدريب المهني، وذلك في سياق تعزيز التعاون، وتوحيد الجهود الحكومية وغير الحكومية، لتحقيق مستهدفات رؤية السعودية 2030.

وتناول جناح “التخصصي” مجموعة من ابتكارات المستشفى، منها ريادته في أبحاث الطب الحيوي في الفضاء، من خلال قيادته أربع تجارب بحثية في علوم الخلية في الفضاء، الأمر الذي يؤكد الدور الريادي للمستشفى في تفعيل الابتكار على المستوى الدولي، وريادته في مجال زراعة الأعضاء ومنها تنفيذه لأول زراعة كبد كاملة باستخدام الروبوت على مستوى العالم.

كما شهد الملتقى احتفال مستشفى الملك فيصل التخصصي ومركز الأبحاث بعلاج 100 مريض بسرطان الدم اللمفاوي باستخدام تقنية الخلايا التائية، ما يُعد إنجازاً فريداً من نوعه على مستوى الشرق الأوسط وأفريقيا، كما احتفى التخصصي بحصول مركز خدمة المستفيدين على جائزة أفضل مركز اتصال حكومي على مستوى الشرط الأوسط من منظمة .INSIGHTS

ويعد مستشفى الملك فيصل التخصصي ومركز الأبحاث من بين الأبرز عالميًا في تقديم الرعاية الصحية التخصصية، ورائدًا في الابتكار، ومركزًا متقدمًا في البحوث والتعليم الطبي، كما يسعى لتطوير التقنيات الطبية، والارتقاء بمستوى الرعاية الصحية على مستوى العالم، وذلك بالشراكة مع كبرى المؤسسات المحلية والإقليمية والدولية لتحقيق خدمة عالمية المستوى في المجالات السريرية والبحثية والتعليمية.

With the message of Unite. Act. Deliver. nations will be gathering in Dubai for this highly anticipated event, to tackle the climate change crisis that grows increasingly threatening with time. This year’s COP aims to be one of action, that plans to bring forth solutions and concrete commitments that aim at fiercely ramping up the planet’s emissions reduction goal, adaptation, finance and loss and damage.

Number of active GPs in Gulf Cooperation Council doubles as domestic opportunities emerge — Preqin reports

Saudi Arabia holds lion’s share of alternative AUM in the GCC at $10.0bn

LONDON, Nov. 06, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Preqin, the global leader in alternative assets data, tools, and insights, published its Private Capital in the Gulf Cooperation Council 2023: Preqin Territory Guide report. The report explores how the alternatives market in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC)* is increasingly looking to domestic investment opportunities, beyond oil.

Years of growth paint a picture of optimism

The GCC’s assets under management (AUM) in private capital hit $1bn in December 2008, reaching $5.8bn as of December 2021, before more than doubling to $12.3bn in 2022, according to Preqin data. Saudi Arabia holds the lion’s share of this AUM in Dec 2022 at $10.0bn, followed by the United Arab Emirates (UAE) AUM with $2.1bn.

Preqin data and insights in the report point to how the GCC is emerging as a potential destination for capital deployment. This trend is demonstrated by the growing number of active fund managers and headline deals being completed by investors such as Blackstone, CVC Capital Partners, Silver Lake, and Apollo. Furthermore, the 529 active GPs in GCC member countries as of 2023 has nearly doubled from 268 in 2018.

An important factor driving change across alternative assets in the GCC is the role of the countries’ sovereign wealth funds (SWFs). Middle East-based SWFs, with combined AUM of more than $3.7tn as of March 2023, are among the biggest investors in alternative assets. Average allocations in 2022 surged to an unprecedented 44% of AUM in December 2022, representing an increase from 22% from December 2021.

David Dawkins, report author, at Preqin says, “As GCC leaders focus on domestic employment opportunities for their young population, the region’s SWFs are becoming more focused on domestic investments. Even a small uptick of the domestic fund alternatives allocations would have a transformative impact on the GCC’s private capital GPs.”

Key findings from the Private Capital in the Gulf Cooperation Council 2023 report include: 

  • Venture capital: AUM for venture capital in the GCC reached $2.9bn as of December 2022, up from $1.5bn in December 2021. A change in investor sentiment towards the region has attracted capital into venture capital funds, with dry powder quadrupling from $400mn in December 2021 to $1.63bn at the end of 2022.
  • Fundraising: In 2022, 23 venture capital funds closed with aggregate capital raised of around $2.5bn. In real estate, between September 2021 and September 2023 year-to-date (YTD), 81 funds have closed with an aggregate capital raised of $2.3bn. And in private equity, between 2018 and 2020, 38 funds closed at an aggregate raise of $1.7bn. In other words, 142 funds in the GCC, between 2018 and 2023, raised a total $6.5bn.
  • Private equity: AUM for private equity in the GCC reached $2.2bn in December 2022, up from $1.25bn in December 2021.
  • Private debt: Half of the GCC’s LPs (50%) surveyed by Preqin earlier this year stated they plan to increase allocations to private debt, compared with just 25% looking to decrease. Not only is this more than any other alternative asset class, it is a full six percentage points higher than our poll of investors globally.

Henley & Partners and Insignia Join Forces to Create Unique Membership Offering for Global Citizens

LONDON, Nov. 06, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Henley & Partners, the ‘firm of global citizens’ and leader in residence and citizenship advisory, has partnered with the leading ultra-luxury lifestyle management and card services group, Insignia, to create a distinctive and exclusive membership offering. Henley Global Citizens is a bespoke ‘by invitation only’ service designed to meet the specific needs of wealthy transnational families, entrepreneurs, and investors who do business, invest, and live internationally and who identify themselves as citizens of the world.

Besides priority access, personal introductions, and complimentary consultations with trusted international banks, leading private client lawyers and other top industry professionals in all key jurisdictions worldwide, the Henley Global Citizens offering includes a membership card, which is also a Visa payment card for large, unlimited payments and cash withdrawals, and to make international wire transfers in major currencies. More importantly, it provides access to a dynamic global network of wealthy and influential individuals and families, and an annual calendar of high-level closed-door events, including private dinners at the WEF in Davos, around the UNGA in New York, the Grand Prix in Monaco, and other major business, geopolitical, sporting, and cultural events around the world.

Members and their families can also benefit from complimentary consultation on global education planning and introductions to the world’s top schools and universities, as well as strategic health advice, access to preventive medicine and longevity programs, and the scheduling of medical checkups at the most advanced healthcare locations including Switzerland, Germany, Singapore, the UAE, the UK, and the USA.

Dr. Christian H. Kaelin, Group Chairman of Henley & Partners, says bringing together the high-profile clients of both businesses and combining their expertise to create a unique and exceptional international advisory and service offering is a logical extension for ‘the firm of global citizens’. “For those of us who see ourselves as global citizens, we are not foregoing our other identities, commitment and affiliations to our own countries, culture, religious and even political beliefs. These continue to give us meaning and add value to our lives. But because we are living in an intimately connected and interdependent world, and operating in a global market, we have added another layer of global identity, interest and responsibility. The Henley Global Citizens membership acknowledges and supports this identity and lifestyle in a very practical, everyday way that can add tremendous value for its members.”

Nada T. Rouviere, President of Insignia Group, stated, “Our partnership with Henley & Partners represents a new era in luxury lifestyle management. At Insignia, we have always been dedicated to providing our members with unparalleled experiences, and the Henley Global Citizens card is the embodiment of this commitment. Together with Henley & Partners we are redefining the meaning of global citizenship, offering an exclusive gateway to a world of limitless possibilities and connections. We look forward to enriching the lives of our members by facilitating their journey as true global citizens.”

Henley Global Citizens will be launched at a bespoke event on Friday, 10 November, following the 17th annual Global Citizenship Conference which takes place this week (8-10 November) at the Shangri-La Hotel DIFC in Dubai, UAE.

The international conference hosted by Henley & Partners, where this year over 400 delegates from over 35 countries are expected to attend, has become the world’s largest and most significant gathering on global private wealth and investment migration, bringing together presidents, prime ministers, senior government ministers and officials, leading academics, private client advisors, family offices, and wealth management professionals, as well as many affluent entrepreneurs and investors.

The 2023 conference program features sophisticated, cutting-edge content on the major developments shaping global wealth planning, investment migration, and geopolitics today.
