2/6/26, 10:51 AM MBRF Concludes Its Participation In Cairo Book Fair 2026
Marking the conclusion of its participation, MBRF, in collaboration with Bibliotheca
Alexandrina, officially launched an audio library project designed for people of
determination through its Digital Knowledge Hub (DKH). The library features a
curated collection of book summaries, serving as an easily accessible, rich source
of knowledge. It marks the commencement of a prominent partnership, led by a
vision to consistently expand the library resources by introducing new books and
audio publications tailored for people of determination, reinforcing the principles of
inclusion and equal access to knowledge.
His Excellency Jamal bin Huwaireb, CEO of MBRF, emphasized that the
Foundation's participation in CIBF is a milestone in its ongoing efforts to enhance
knowledge production and access in the Arab world. His Excellency also noted
that the launch of the audio library project for people of determination reflects
MBRF's vision of making knowledge universally accessible.
Bin Huwaireb added:“We take great pride in this strategic partnership, which
contributes to advancing inclusivity and equal access to knowledge. As part of this
endeavor, we will leverage digital and audio solutions, empowering people of
determination to engage with global knowledge resources in an accessible and
modern format. This seamlessly aligns with our mission of building a sustainable
knowledge-based society that positions individuals as the cornerstone of
knowledge and technological transformation. We also look forward to maintaining
an active presence at such prominent knowledge platforms to consolidate
strategic partnerships, fuel the Arab knowledge renaissance, and fulfill the
aspirations of future generations.”
The Knowledge Project sessions, in particular, attracted robust participation and
interest at CIBF. The sessions convened an exemplary lineup of specialists,
experts, and thinkers from across the globe to explore relevant themes such as
the role of volunteering in shaping the future of communities, the human and
ethical dimensions of artificial intelligence, the challenges of musical creativity
amid AI advancements, and the future of Arab youth in the context of emerging
technologies, entrepreneurship, digital media, and content creation.
Sessions held under various other MBRF-led initiatives also attracted strong
engagement from visitors. These include the Dubai International Program for
Writing (DIPW), which supported literary talents and helped participants of all
ages refine their writing skills, and the Knowledge Lounge initiative, which offered
an open avenue for direct, meaningful dialogue exchange between writers and
readers. Similarly, MBRF's KnowTalks hosted distinguished thinkers and experts
who explored various interdisciplinary knowledge and development topics, while
