The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
244. Khalfan Belhoul: How Dubai Is Becoming a Global Hub for Longevity and Human Performance

So can we talk about education for a minute?

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
244. Khalfan Belhoul: How Dubai Is Becoming a Global Hub for Longevity and Human Performance

Of course.

children that are being educated in Dubai to want to stay here in this region and make a contribution rather than to seek employment and education elsewhere.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka

Because what I find is the vast majority of people I've met and speak to that are in prominent positions in Dubai were educated outside of Dubai, at least collegially, including yourself, but they came back.

and they came back and wanted to make a contribution.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
244. Khalfan Belhoul: How Dubai Is Becoming a Global Hub for Longevity and Human Performance

So how is it that you create that culture in the younger generation so that while they may go elsewhere, they have this desire to come back?

companies and startups and entrepreneurs could learn about building the culture of their own organization?

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
244. Khalfan Belhoul: How Dubai Is Becoming a Global Hub for Longevity and Human Performance

Just a strong embrace to say, we want this vision here.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
244. Khalfan Belhoul: How Dubai Is Becoming a Global Hub for Longevity and Human Performance

How can we widen the lanes to make this happen?
