Dubai: Young Emirati entrepreneurs to develop a positive trading mentality and be able to mix with the right set of people who have good investment ideas and are successful in the business world the chairman of Al Habtoor Group has urged.

Khalaf Ahmed Al Habtoor also placed the responsibility on the first generation of Dubai traders to share their experiences and knowledge with the younger generation of Emirati entrepreneurs.

Speaking during a recent meeting hosted at his Ramadan Majlis Al Habtoor urged budding entrepreneurs to adopt a systematic lifestyle and a commitment and love to work which he said are the foundations of a successful life and entrepreneurial career.

The meeting was attended by a delegation from the Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry including Hesham Al Shirawi second vice-chairman of the Dubai Chamber; Hamad Buamim president and chief executive officer of the Dubai Chamber; Essa Al Zaabi senior vice-president of the Institutional Support Sector at the Dubai Chamber and general coordinator of Tejar Dubai; and members of the newly-founded Tejar Dubai Youth Council which started functioning recently under the umbrella of the Dubai Chamber with the support of the Tejar Dubai entrepreneurship development programme.

Lauding the encouragement and support of the late Ruler of Dubai Shaikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum for the success of the first generation of entrepreneurs Al Habtoor stressed on the young entrepreneurs to choose commercial projects that they are comfortable with and to thoroughly study the investment choices before setting up a business.

“It’s always good to focus on business areas and disciplines that one is familiar with rather than to take on unfamiliar projects which offer minimal possibility of success” Al Habtoor said adding that the key to success is to lead a balanced lifestyle by concentrating on your work while giving the best of your time to your family.
