Hello and welcome to the latest edition of The Alea Journal.
As we prepare for our family office investment summit in Africa, we are digging deep into the wonderful natural resources Africa has to offer. We are referring, of course, to the entrepreneurship and generosity of the region’s business leaders and emerging talent.
We look at some of the young entrepreneurs who are leading the region in a positive direction, and at some of the landscapes, culture and history that make it a place everyone should visit.
Our events calendar is filling up with summits and sessions around the world, and we look forward to seeing old friends and making new ones.
One of the newest friends we have made recently is Sophia the robot, and you can read our interview with her in this issue. If you’re lucky enough to be at our Latam summit, you can also see her speak in person.
In this edition of the Journal, we’re also looking at AI and its role in health.
It’s not all about tech though, we’re also celebrating the life of wonderful human Dr. Abdul Rahman Hamoud Al Sumait and his impact on lives across Africa. And we also explore the awe- inspiring artwork of James Turrell, playing with light and space.
Finally, we look at the role of the Gulf as a cultural and religious melting pot, drawing parallels with Jerusalem in its openness and diversity.
