Welcome to the 2019 Edition of the BBBF Directory The success of the BBBF s events and activities, in promoting business opportunities and providing a networking platform for the forum s members and their guests continues to grow. This is a strong reflection of the interest, deep understanding, friendship, business interests and opportunities that exist between Britain and Bahrain. We are delighted also to see that our membership continues to grow in it s diversity. This year we were honoured to have very high profile speakers address the forum. Starting off in January we had H.E. Shaikh Khalid bin Humood Al Khalifa, CEO of BTEA, give an insight on their long term strategy plans. In March H.E Shaikh Salman bin Isa Al Khalifa gave an overview of the Grand Prix Formula One event. In April we had a visit from the UK by UKEF Chief Executive Louis Taylor and in September we had H.E. Dr Abdul Hussain bin Ali Mirza, Minister of EWA outline the Latest development in renewable Energy in Bahrain. We also saw this year the Special Interest Group s (SIG) activities grow and share with us a wealth of interesting and dynamic topics. They continue to drive forward offering our members and guests a valuable medium for exchanging industry specific ideas. This highlights the need for additional networking events and high profile speakers, to cater for our ever growing and increasingly diverse membership. As we move in to 2019 we continue to bring to the forefront an agenda of topics related to doing business in Bahrain and we begin in the 4

first quarter with a strong line up of keynote speakers. H.E. Shaikh Mohammed bin Khalifa Al Khalifa Minister of Oil & Gas scheduled for the first event on January 15, followed by H.E. Simon Martin CMG, British Ambassador to Bahrain on January 22. One of the BBBF s core objective is to continue to enhance the economic interests of both the UK and Bahrain in a favourable business environment. We enjoy an excellent working relationship with the British Embassy and the Department of International Trade teams. We are sure that H.E. Ambassador, Simon Martin s dynamic commercial team will continue to support us through a rewarding partnership in the numerous business networking activities that we organise. We are also very fortunate to have permanent British Embassy representation on our Committee, to ensure that we develop synergies, capitalise areas of mutual interest, connect visiting trade delegates to the right people during their stay, and follow-up tangible opportunities. It is pleasing to see such a large number of British companies seeking to do business in Bahrain and the wider GCC marketplace. We are also pleased to see increasing numbers of young professionals, both British and Bahraini alike, joining the Forum. With this next generation, the strong relationship between Bahrain and Britain will continue to grow in strength over the years to come. We are encouraged that the UK government continues to have a key focus on the Bahrain market in particular and that the Gulf generally remains pivotal to this ambitious growth


From the Chair

strategy. It is clear that Bahrain is ideally placed to capitalise on this economic renaissance, with our geographic advantages linking us to Saudi Arabia by causeway, logistics hubs, regional cost competitiveness and most importantly a diverse, deeply skilled and entrepreneurial workforce. The rise in interest continues from Bahraini companies interested in forging partnerships and joint ventures to harness British industrial expertise and technical know-how. Today the BBBF is an integral contributor to the great relationship between Bahrain and the UK. Since it formed in 1995 it has promoted trade relations between UK and Bahrain as well as promoting Bahrain as a regional hub to do business. The special business relationship and close friendship that Bahrain and Britain have forged over hundreds of years serves both islands in good stead as we seek to undertake more business with each other in future years to come. I would like to make a special mention to our sponsors, who continue to be a great source of financial support and generous encouragement. Their support allows us the financial security to increase the number and quality of events that we organise for your benefit and enjoyment. I would also like to thank all the BBBF Committee and Special Interest Group (SIG) Leaders and the BBBF Executive office for their tremendous support and hard work during 2018. I hope that you find this directory, which is a comprehensive list of our members, a useful networking tool as a supplement to

our website, [www.bbbforum.org], which provides an excellent platform for members to locate other members and for members to reach potential business partners and clients. The directory also travels overseas with copies being made available to visiting British Trade Missions and other British Business Groups throughout the Gulf, the Middle East Association, and the Arab British Chamber of Commerce, based in London. We are all very proud to serve our members and I am deeply honoured to have the opportunity to represent you as Chairman. We always welcome hearing ways that we can serve you and make the Bahrain-British business community better in the future, so please do let us know and we welcome your feedback. We wish each and every one of our members and your respective organisations a very successful and profitable 2019, and we look forward to seeing you, and your guests, at forthcoming BBBF events.

Best wishes

Khalid Al Zayani OBE Chairman 5



Ambassador's Foreword Welcome to the 2019 edition of the BBBF Directory Welcome to the BBBF! I am now well into my fourth year as Ambassador to the Kingdom of Bahrain and during that time I have had many chances to see and join the BBBF at work. I can honestly say it is the most dynamic, effective bilateral business promotion and networking organization I have ever worked with in my career. It is my pleasure to be associated with the Forum and I look forward to meeting you at one of its many events during the coming year. As we begin 2019, the prospect of Brexit looms ever closer and, even though there is still much to be discussed and decided about our exit, the UK is now developing its first independent trade policy in more than 40 years. This will mean greater opportunity than ever for British firms to trade with and invest in Bahrain and the other Gulf markets. In recognition of these ambitions, we were delighted to welcome the arrival in October of Simon Penney, the new HM Trade Commissioner for the Middle East. Simon s brand new appointment is concrete evidence of the UK s determination to play a more proactive global role as we prepare to leave the EU. As HMTC, based in Dubai, Simon will oversee trade promotion and investment in the Middle East - raising the profile of the region in the UK and building stronger trading relationships. The formal relationship between Britain and Bahrain is now in its third century. Like all successful relationships, it evolves over time, but one constant is the warm familiarity between the UK and Bahrain that is rarely matched elsewhere. Many of the British nationals I meet in Bahrain have lived in other parts of the region and almost all say that Bahrain is the place where they are made to feel most welcome.

And for many Bahrainis London remains a home from home , many have property and business interests there. Bahrainis love Simon Martin CMG to study in the UK 1 in 500 Bahrainis are studying at British universities right now - they love to holiday in the UK, they are enthusiastic football fans and passionate supporters of our Premier League. There remains a great appetite for British goods and services in the region the Great brand has real resonance here - and there are over 180 registered British branch companies in Bahrain and over 700 British companies represented or active in the market through partnerships or agents. These cover a wide range of sectors, including construction, financial and professional services, aviation, engineering, education and training, marketing, retail and pharmaceuticals. Traditionally Bahrain s economic footprint in the UK has been seen in property investment. While this remains an important element, today s trade and investment relationship is a more balanced one for example Bahrainbased Investcorp s purchase of the debt management business of 3i plc brought an additional $11billion of assets under the company s management while McLaren, the Formula One and performance car icon, is majority owned by Mumtalakat. So it is thanks to Bahraini investment that a new state of the art McLaren manufacturing plant has been established in the city of Sheffield, opened in November 2018 by HRH Crown Prince Salman and HRH The Duke of Cambridge. 7


As economic reform and liberalization gather pace across the region, so Bahrain s regional approach will need to continue to evolve in order to take full advantage of the opportunities that arise. The launch last summer of the Gateway Gulf initiative, together with the Government s economic reform programme and the fiscal support package recently agreed with three of Bahrain s neighbours, coupled with the recent appointment of H.E. Sheikh Salman bin Khalifa al Khalifa as Finance Minister to oversee economic reform are all clear signs of the Government s determination to do just this. In the defence field UK-Bahrain ties are now stronger than ever. In April we witnessed the official opening of the new UK Naval Support Facility in Juffair by HRH The Duke of York and HRH The Crown Prince. It was an honour to welcome to the Embassy UK service personnel from all three services, together with representatives from the BDF and many other countries and three Chelsea Pensioners - to our Remembrance Service on 11th November, the 100th anniversary of the Armistice. Education has been an important growth area for the UK over the last year with the opening of the British University of Bahrain, the first higher education provider in the Kingdom to actively promote and integrate industrial partnerships into its core activity and curriculum, with ambitions to also support Bahrain s start-up ecosystem and replicate the University of Salford s incubator model in Bahrain. This is alongside the many well-established partnerships between other British and Bahraini universities already delivering internationally-recognised British university degrees, joint research programmes and a booming British international schools sector. 8

Looking ahead, there is now under 12 months to go until the opening of Bahrain s new international airport, with many British companies already involved and further opportunities unfolding. Aviation is of course never far from our minds: the first British Airways commercial Concorde flight was from London to Bahrain; Gulf Air s impressive new Dreamliners are powered by Rolls Royce engines; all new RBAF pilots train on Hawk jet trainers including HH Sheikha Aisha bint Rashid Al Khalifa, Bahrain s first female graduate of the world famous Sandhurst Royal Military College. Visitors were able to practice on BAE Systems Hawk simulators at the Bahrain International Airshow in November 2018 and all were enthralled by the stunning aerial display from the RAF Typhoon Display Team. In 2019 we shall see the installation of a second water treatment plant by British company Bluewater Bio, which will dramatically improve the quality of the water in Tubli Bay. UK Export Finance has played an important part in bringing this project to life. UKEF has also helped to ensure that there will be significant British involvement in the huge BAPCO Refinery Modernisation Project which will get up to full speed in 2019. Similarly, as Nusrat Ghani MP, Parliamentary Under Secretary of State at the Department for Transport, told British businesses during her visit in November, we are seeking to ensure that British bidders for two major transport infrastructure projects the King Hamad Causeway and the Bahrain Metro can also benefit from the very competitive products which UKEF has to offer. All of these elements add up to an interesting and exciting time to be involved in British-Bahraini business. The BBBF, my Department for International Trade team and I are here to see how we can help your company to take advantage of the opportunities.



The Department for International Trade secures UK and global prosperity by promoting and financing international trade and investment. We provide operational support to UK and UK-based companies including export credit facilities for inward and outward investment and bespoke research to facilitate contact with clients or business partners. We carry out initial market research, assist with product launches, and coordinate events at the British Embassy for your company. We

work with our networks across the UK, sector specialists in DIT s HQ in London, and other DIT teams across the MENA region to promote business opportunities in Bahrain and coordinate visits and trade missions to Bahrain and the Gulf. DIT currently has four full-time officers. The work of the team is directly supported by the Deputy Head of Mission, Mockbul Ali and the UK Ambassador to Bahrain, Simon Martin CMG.

Special Interest Groups

Mark Gravener SIG Chair

The Special Interest Groups (SIG s) are a set of industry focused or category related sub groups, from the main forum. Their aim is to highlight the opportunities in Bahrain s economic diversification plan and Britain s ambitions for export growth (be those products, services or talent) and assist existing and potential BBBF members in securing a larger share of these. Additionally the SIG s provide the space for members and their guests to meet more frequently and explore issues of concern to them, find ways together with the respective authorities and organisations to make doing business between Britain and Bahrain that much easier. Typically each SIG meets four times per year for workshops, networking, and seminars or to hear from interesting speakers on current subjects, relevant to their sectors. They also provide an outreach to business in the local community, connecting valuable expertise, manufacturers or services of benefit to each and between both countries and a conduit for the same in the United Kingdom.

Currently there are 8 groups with additional SIGs due to be announced during early 2019. Our SIG Heads provide their time voluntarily and welcome the support and feedback of the BBBF s wider membership. How can you get involved?

Come along and support a meeting even if it is not directly connected to your industry and bring a guest.

Suggest ideas for an event or activity you think would be of value.

If you have a strong interest in a business sector, have the passion and energy to start a group, let us know.

If you are a technical expert or have valuable and timely information to share, contact the relevant SIG Head.

Have other suggestions for improvements we can make, contact any of our team or the Committee

Why join the BBBF? BAHRAIN The Pearl of the Gulf has had a long standing relationship with Britain and is still a major trading partner. BRITISH Trade with Bahrain is now subject to significant competition in this era of globalization particularly from countries in Europe and from the USA. BUSINESS between Bahrain and Britain must be promoted in order for Britain to maintain its dominant position. The BBBF has been formed to help in whatever way it can to do this and through its close cooperation with the British Embassy seeks to promote exchange of trade and good relations between Bahrain and Britain. FORUM Is defined in the Collins English Dictionary as, “an assembly or meeting to discuss topics of public concern”. The BBBF provides, through its monthly meetings, a platform for networking amongst its members and the exchange and dissemination of useful business leads and opportunities. In addition, in return for a modest subscription, members receive the benefit of inclusion in an annual directory describing the products and services they have to offer and a listing on the BBBF website again with a description of activities, contact numbers and useful links. Membership directories are distributed to members of visiting Trade Missions and are available to businessmen visiting Bahrain through the Embassy and business centres in five star hotels. Simply click on “Sign Up” on our website www.bbbforum.org and click submit, or complete the application form on Page 30. Sounds simple. It is. It must be worth it. Cost of individual membership: BD100 per annum, with an additional BD40 once-only registration fee. Cost of Corporate membership: BD400 per annum, (for up to 5 members) with an additional BD100 once-only registration fee. plus BD40 for each additional applicant. 25

Property Finding If you need an experienced hand to help you find the right home in the right area for the right price based on job location, schooling requirements and personal interests, Expat Angels can help. Gathering good information is crucial as wasted viewings cost time and money, and what should be a pleasurable experience can become very frustrating. We will listen to you, and then use our unique approach to property search to help find you your ideal property. In order to make a house a home, we can assist with the setting up of utilities. Cultural Induction Cultural differences can be the biggest obstacle when relocating to a new country. Expat Angels provide a cultural induction workshop covering the following topics: language, society, culture, religion, social and business etiquette and opportunities for an expat. This workshop helps to smoothen the transition into the new environment.

THE BBBF MAGAZINE IS YOUR MAGAZINE Dear BBBF Member,

We are striving to keep each edition of the Forum Magazine up-to-date with current news and events and would be very pleased to receive your Press Releases, with or without pictures, of any new developments within your company, whether it be a promotion, an expansion, a new product or a special event. Please note items sent in must be newsworthy; any material that is simply an attempt to place free advertising will not be printed. Here are three TOP TIPS for getting your press release included. 1) Have A Story To Tell You must have a story to tell, a hook, or an interesting angle. Whilst demand for news is great, the news must still be interesting. So, find your story and develop it. Whilst you try and do this, make sure you think about the following: u u u u

event tie-in articles socially important editorial tie-in articles innovations and developments or unique products unusual events or unique personal accomplishments

2) Think Like a Journalist u

u

u

3) Keep Your Press Release Short! With so much to consider when writing a press release it’s not surprising that most people write too much copy. It doesn’t matter how well you have written your press release, if it’s too long then it won’t get read. So keep your press release short. Remove words that do not need to be there. Not convinced? Ask yourself these questions: u

u

2) Keep it simple Don't mess around with fancy fonts, inappropriate attempts to emphasise with I t a l i c s o r s p a c i n g variations, you're only giving the editior more work to do to turn it into something he wants to include instead of an excuse to ignore it...

So what reasons would an editor want to publish your news? What benefits would their readers get? Is it relevant and timely? Ideally, make the main benefit of your press release the headline. Or try and answer at least three of the classic five Ws -- who, what, when, where and why -- for your publicity angle in the headline. If you do not come up with a compelling headline then the editor may simply not read any further.

u

How many of these press releases do you think editors get to read for every publication? How many long, badly-worded releases will they read before, eventually, they become instantly put off just by the length of a press release? And how much more likely do you think it is that an editor will read your SHORT, quick-to-read, press release?

Understand now? Keep your press release short, simple as that! 165
