Investing in the development of our country\u2019s youth is one of the main pillars of Al Bayt Mitwahid, and it makes me extremely proud that we\u2019re able to contribute to that aim through this amazing opportunity. The opportunities in the healthcare industry continues to exponentially grow, year after year, and as a result we want to ensure that we significantly increase the number of Emirati\u2019s in our healthcare industry. I\u2019ve been immensely impressed with the students, who have already proved their potential by providing solutions that could benefit the medical industry for years to come.
