        prepared for the future.

        networking opportunities and insights necessary to thrive in a rapidly evolving industry.
        Kim Winter, Group Managing Director of Logistics Executive Group, said, “Logicareer
        has been curated to explore the specific issues we experience throughout the logistics,
        supply chain, and mobility ecosystems, including the complexity of competing for talent
        with  higher  profile  and  better-understood  sectors.  Logicareer  will  focus  on  bridging
        education and industry skill gaps by bringing together operational, HR executives, and
        educators and drilling down on their experiences, ideas, and solutions.”

        Logicareer  was  hosted  yesterday  by  the  Logistics  Executive  Group  and  featured
        industry  executives  who  discussed  topics  including  economic  diversification,
        technological advancements, and Emiratisation. Studium Alliance led today’s agenda,
        focusing  on  bridging  education  and  industry  skill  gaps,  sharing  key  trends,  and
        preparing graduates for the evolving job market.
