Welcome to the 2016 Edition of the BBBF Directory I hope that you find this directory, a comprehensive list of our members, a very useful networking tool. This year is a very special year for the BBBF. We will be marking and celebrating the 200 year anniversary of the bilateral relationship between Bahrain and Britain. Demand continues to grow from within Bahrain and 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. We have experienced a rise in interest from Bahraini companies interested in forging partnerships and joint ventures to harness British industrial expertise and technical know-how. We are encouraged that the UK government continues with a key focus on the Bahrain market in particular and that the Gulf generally remains pivotal to this ambitious growth 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. 4
The special business relationship and close friendship that Bahrain and Britain have forged over hundreds of years will serve both islands in good stead, as we seek to undertake more business with each other and as reiterated by the British Embassy and UKTI. We continue to enjoy an excellent working relationship with the British Embassy and the United Kingdom Trade & Investment teams. We welcome H.E. Ambassador, Simon Martin, to the Kingdom of Bahrain. We are sure that his 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 followup tangible opportunities. As a supplement to our website, [www.bbbforum.org], the annual membersÂ’ directory has an important role to play. With a distribution of over 1,500 copies, the directory provides an excellent platform for members to locate other members and for members to reach potential business
From the Chair
partners and clients. The directory can be found in the British Embassy in Bahrain, business centres of all 5 star hotels in Bahrain, in lounges of Bahrain International Airport and on the desks of senior executives in both the public and private sectors here in Bahrain. 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. A special mention also 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 like to thank all the BBBF Committee and Special Interest Group (SIG) Leaders for their tremendous support and hard work during 2015. To cater for our ever growing and increasingly diverse membership, and in addition to our regular monthly lunches and dinner functions, the SIGs have been very active in organising additional networking events throughout 2015.
This included the launch of our newly formed Oil, Gas and Energy SIG. We have been very fortunate to have been addressed by some very interesting and dynamic speakers who have shared with us a wealth of knowledge and ideas that we may leverage within our own businesses. Our committee does not have a monopoly of good ideas, so we always welcome hearing ways that we can serve you, the Bahrain-British business community, better in the future, so please do let us know and we welcome your feedback. We are all very proud to serve our members and I am deeply honoured to have the opportunity to represent you as Chairman. We wish each and every one of our members and your respective organisations a very successful and profitable 2016, and we look forward to seeing you, and your guests, at forthcoming BBBF events and to help us celebrate the 200 year anniversary. Best wishes
Khalid Al Zayani OBE Chairman 5
Ambassador's Foreword Welcome to the 2016 edition of the BBBF Directory It is an honour to represent the United Kingdom in the Kingdom of Bahrain. Our two countries share a long and special history. I arrived in Bahrain in September this year and everything I was told about the warmth of the reception my wife, Sophie, and I would receive has been true. And it is clear from the many meetings I have had since my arrival in the Kingdom with His Majesty King Hamad, HRH The Crown Prince and HRH The Prime Minister, with Ministers and senior officials, with businessmen and women and others from across Bahraini society that the relationship with the UK is much treasured in Bahrain. I feel therefore that there is shared enthusiasm for building on the already strong business, trade and investment links which exist between our two countries.
host a year-long series of events, showcasing the depth and range of the relationship events which will touch on financial services, entrepreneurship, heritage, sports, health, education, technology, food, and fashion. In addition, the events will also be used as a platform to showcase and drive trade and investment opportunities between our two nations across multiple sectors, building on the success of the British Government s GREAT campaign.
Next year s bicentenary offers an excellent opportunity to develop further and to celebrate the bilateral relationship. The UK and Bahraini Governments, as well as companies, schools, clubs and community organisations will
But let s look back for minute. During 2015 we have continued to witness positive growth in the trade of goods. British export figures are expected to exceed 2014 s £216.5m this year. Much is being done in the UK to drive 7
trade growth with the launch of the British government s most ambitious exporting campaign yet, Exporting is GREAT . This multimedia campaign aims to restore the UK s position as one of the world s leading exporting nations and empower still more UK companies to succeed in global markets. We know there is much unsatisfied demand for British goods and services and I know of nowhere where this is more apparent than here in Bahrain - and we are serious about taking advantage of this. We have recently had great success in education, a key sector in Bahrain which presents numerous collaboration opportunities with world-leading UK institutions and awarding bodies. As an example of this, I am delighted that Salford University has entered into a new partnership with the Bahrain Institute of Banking and Finance (BIBF), to launch a number of collaborative academic initiatives between Bahrain and the UK. And we look forward with confidence to 2016 and the prospect of a number of projects coming to fruition, including in new and exciting fields. 8
I would like to pay special tribute to Khaled Al Zayani OBE for his ongoing and inspiring leadership of the BBBF and his continuing dedication to further strengthening the bilateral relationship. My thanks also go to the BBBF Committee, Special Interest Group Chairs, the BBBF Secretariat as well as the members for their contribution to UK/Bahrain relations. I very much appreciate your support. The Embassy s UK Trade and Investment team and I look forward to working with the BBBF and yet more British companies next year. 2015 has been a good year and I have arrived at an exciting time; with the determination and enthusiasm so many people are already showing, 2016 is going to be a year to remember and I wish the BBBF and its members a very prosperous 2016!

Special Interest Groups
The special interest groups exist to meet the needs of members who want to learn more about specific sectors or about specialist areas of expertise in a more informal environment. We want to involve the broader Bahrain business community and encourage non BBBF members as well as BBBF members to come to our meetings. Interest groups aim to meet four times a year. The interest groups started in response to member interest and at the moment we have six groups. These are run by individuals who have an interest in the topic themselves and who are willing to manage the process of running their groups with support from the office and from me but they do need to do most of the work themselves. Up to date contacts for the SIG Chairpersons may be found on the BBBF Website. How you can get involved

Please support the meetings and come to the shared networking events we organise a couple of times a year. If you have a strong interest in a business sector and have the passion, time and energy to start a group let me know. If you have an idea for an event or want to get involved with the interest group organisation as a whole please get in touch with me. If you are technical expert who would like to share your knowledge with the broader group get in touch with me or the appropriate SIG head. If you would like to be a venue for our meetings contact me or the BBBF office. If you would like to help me organise some larger networking events for this year I would welcome support and access to some administrative resources. Rick Hopper SIG Chair 2015-6

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! 41

Shaikh Khalifa bin Salman Al-Khalifa, Chairman of the State council, announced Bahrain s complete independence on behalf of H.H. the late Shaikh Isa bin Salman Al-Khalifa, on 14 August 1971. The decree defined the Ministry of Foreign Affairs duties and responsibilities in terms of coordinating and implementing all matters related to the nation s foreign policy, and its international relations with other countries and international organizations, in addition to protecting the interests of Bahraini citizens abroad.

Next time you visit the UK why not try somewhere different
Bed & Breakfast in the Southwest of England The Robin Hill is ideally located in a central yet quiet area of Torquay, known as The English Riviera, and is just a brief 500 metre stroll down the hill to the town’s harbour, shops, restaurants, bars and seafront. BUT don’t take our word for it. Our most recent TripAdvisor reviews include the following: A beautiful hotel with lots of character close to the town, steep return walk but good exercise for those who are able. Lovely friendly hosts providing a delicious breakfast, our room was spotless, beds were really comfortable, Reviewed in September 2015 Lovely place. Charming and professional welcome and a house full of character with plenty of outside table space to enjoy an evening drink. The bar area is friendly and accommodates families and dogs. Rooms are spotlessly clean and beds incredibly comfortable - best night s sleep in ages! Good breakfast with efficient service. Would definitely recommend. Reviewed in August 2015 Great location, beautiful old house, immaculately clean and lovely breakfasts. We stayed for two nights and we will certainly stay at the Robin Hill next time we visit Torquay. Reviewed in July 2015
