It’s the best way to recognize and award the companies and innovative solutions that might be known in a limited profile.” Says Chair of the Judging Panel Anwaar Al Shimmari, Director of the Design Department – United Arab Emirates Ministry of Infrastructure Development.
Adding a global perspective from the judges table, Professor of Civil Engineering & Dean of the School of Engineering American University in Dubai Dr. Alaa K.
