Foreword By Mohammad Al Duaij, CEO Of Alea Global Group

Welcome to another edition of The Alea Journal.

As we continue to navigate difficult times and to look beyond our differences, this issue brings stories of some small hope.

We look at the future tourism industry of Damascus to imagine what its future prospects might be.

As Singapore celebrates 60 years of independence, we explore the international relationships it has cultivated during that time.

Diversity in the workplace is not just a buzzphrase, but we look at how it is a strategy that can reap very real rewards.

We also peek into the rivalry between family-led giants Sega and Nintendo to see how they each improved with the friendly competition of the other.

In cultural news, we dive into the news of new platform Showrunner, and what this AI-powered creation tool – plus other AI developments – means for the film and television industries.

All this plus our look at the investment opportunities in the Middle East, the

top 5 cities in the world for family offices, and an interview with Jordan Wise, who has conquered and combined the worlds of sport and media.
