The Sharjah Entrepreneurship Festival (SEF) is returning for its third year in November with a host of impressive speakers.
Sheikha Shamma bint Sultan bin Khalifa Al Nahyan, founder and CEO of Alliances for Global Sustainability and founder of Circle of Hope Foundation will be the headline speaker at the two-day event, set to take place on Monday, November 25 and Tuesday, November 26.
