As I look back on the first year of my entrepreneurial venture at Genesys Pharmaceuticals, I feel compelled to share some key moments, lessons and milestones that have shaped this new journey that I embarked on, and look forward to see how it continues to unfold: - The strength of the #partnership we have in place with Holmed Group, which is built on a shared purpose: making #healthcare solutions and quality care accessible to patients across the #MEA region. Collaborating with sister companies and talented colleagues at Holmed Group toward this noble goal brings the impossible within reach. Several exciting pipeline projects are approaching execution, offering limitless prospects. - The importance of having an extensive #network spanning multiple geographies, encompassing the entire healthcare value chain, and keeping #patients at its core. This has enabled us to connect research-driven global biopharma and medical device companies with local distributors, health authorities, and medical communities, all driven by a common goal, to best serve the patients and people of our region. - The beauty in the #diversity and complexity of the markets in our region, which opens up a myriad of #opportunities and possibilities for our budding alliances and partnerships. While mindful of market volatility and associated risks, we remain committed to investing, expanding, and establishing our presence across multiple markets; we remain determined to contribute to ongoing healthcare reforms and the region’s evolving healthcare landscape. - The cultural mosaic and intricacies of the countries and people we aim to serve, offering an unlimited source of talent, fueled by a younger generation determined to create change and spur progress, harnessing the power of #technology and #data, driven by their relentless pursuit of a better life. I will sign off with the words of a poet and philosopher from my country, Gibran Khalil Gibran: “Trust in dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity.” Special thanks to Andre Fadel, Randa Aoun, Roy Chartouny, Wael Chourbaji, Rita Slim and Carla Khoury for their continuous support and valuable contributions
