While I was reading in the World Finance magazin, they have mention the names of the 25 people shaping tomorrow's world of Middle East Business, and I will fill out for you the number 1 because we was talking in course about Dubai and it could be interresting point for you

1- Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum, is the ruler of Dubai, whose vision is fuelling the frenetic development of the city and spurring the transformation of the gulf. He is also Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates, of which Dubai in one emirate. Sheikh Mohammed owes his wealth to oil, but conscious that the reserves on his patch of land are relatively small, he has broadened the economic base into property, ports and airports, leisure and financial services. Sheikh Mohammed heads the list because he is powerful, influential and rich. However, it is his role as the catalyst for change in the region that sets him apart.
Sheikh Mohammed appears acutely aware of the opportunities, and more willing than most to combat threats that have prompted other Middle East leaders to impede, or halt, the process of reform.
