Co-operation agreement signed with India’s Big Strategic Management Consultants

We are pleased to announce that on March 21st a co-operation agreement was signed between B2B21 and BIG STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT CONSULTANTS (popularly known as ‘Big Consultants’) covering mutually beneficial operations in GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council Countries), Spain, India and Vietnam.  

This bona fide agreement is the result of the ties previously established in successful shared projects in the U.A.E., such as the business plans for our sister company Bijou Siglo XXI among others.

BIG CONSULTANTS have offices in Bombay and Dubai and are particularly active in other countries in the Gulf Region.

The agreement, which was signed in joyous mood between Prajakta and Makaran from BIG CONSULTANTS and Carmelo and Pili from B2B21 includes provisions for the sharing of privileged information, confidentiality, intellectual property and profit-sharing.  

We look forward to many more shared successes in the years to come!

B2B21 with renewable energies high official Mr Ahmed Al Arabeeaa

As B2B21 clients are aware of, renewable energies is one of the business sectors we have been more active in over the past few months. We have been fortunate enough to establish a number of key partnerships in the U.A.E., a country that has taking this key environmental issue to heart – as proven by the City of Masdar, the world’s first carbon-neutral zero-waste enclave and headquarters to the International Renewable Energy Agency IRENA (links in our Blogroll).

This is why we are especially happy and proud to have established a close partnership with a high civil servant who plays a major role in the U.A.E. renewable energies policy. We are referring to Mr Ahmed Al Arabeeaa, who has been of great assistance to us through his work at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and his deep knowledge and involvement with environmental sustainability. Mr Arabeeaa is also the Director of Royal View Group, a company with which B2B21 has signed a preferential cooperation agreement.

B2B21 partner Carmelo Hernando met with him recently in the course of our late March visit to the U.A.E. . We look forward to working together with Mr Al Arabeeaa in many environmentally-friendly projects in the years to come.

Abu Dhabi success: The Prince and The Circuit

Our partner and chief dealmaker Carmelo Hernando has just returned from Abu Dhabi, where he was honoured to meet H.R.H. Prince Felipe of Spain and his wife Princess Leticia. The royal couple, who were visiting the Emirate to strengthen Spanish ties with the region, were gracious enough to converse with Carmelo about B2B21 projects in the U.A.E. and Princess Leticia reputedly showed an interest in our sister company Bijou Siglo XXI.

Later on, and after several fruitful meetings with local government officials and business leaders, Carmelo had the chance to witness live a thrilling Formula 1 racing event at the Yas Marina Circuit.

Abu Dhabi remains one of the key destinations for B2B21 and we are planning more trips to the area later in February. Contact us if you have an interest in penetrating this highly promising region.
