September 22 CarTalk and Social Media

Two very different but engaging hours of Nightline.

In hour 1 it was all about cars with the boys from MotoringME.com.




in hour 2 it is all about social media and your business. But how do we get started with enterprise social media? Two speakers give us their tips as heard at the 2nd GCC Government Social Media Summit.

Ministry of Defence UK


Dr. Hassan Dawood


Head of Dubai office, Alsayegh Media

A doctor by training and an entrepreneur by passion, Dr Hassan Dawood started his first company in the technology sector while still a medical student in the United Kingdom. Upon returning to his native UAE, he was instrumental in co-establishing a revolutionary New Media agency. Within the space of two short years, he helped to transform the company from a “new player” to a “game changer”.

Today he inspires a multi-skilled staff of Emirati and international talents, and has spearheaded some of the region’s most highly-praised communication strategies for clients such as Dubai Economic Department, Abu Dhabi Police, Dubai International Peace Convention, and many other successes.
Dr Hassan regularly invests his time as a Motivational Speaker and Special Judge at entrepreneurship events. He is devoted to helping young Emirati entrepreneurs become a dominant force on the world stage. His philosophy is that the only real limit for an entrepreneur should be their imagination.
