From February 18th to March 1st, a group of 24 McGill MBAs and Management Undergrads will head to Abu Dhabi and Dubai with Prof. Karl Moore.
The trip is the second part of the Desautels Faculty "5 Hot Cities of the World Tour". We are all looking forward to meeting CEOs, senior politicians and professors, and getting to discover this captivating region.
We are also very excited to share our experience with you readers, and hope that we can pass along some of what we learn!!! We'll be blogging regularly about the UAE, and sharing our feedback.
