Der IMPULS Closing Ceremony: Celebrating the Success of Our Mentoring Program

02/07/2024

We are thrilled to announce the successful closing ceremony of the third session of Der IMPULS, a mentoring program by the AHK German Emirati Joint Council for Industry & Commerce.

Der IMPULS is dedicated to mentoring advanced Emirati students and young professionals. This year, eight experienced leaders from German companies, including Caparol, ZF, SAP, BMW, Hella, and Lufthansa, guided the participants on their career paths. The program was established in 2021 to foster collaboration between the United Arab Emirates and Germany. Led by the AHK, it has now successfully completed its third year, spanning over four intensive months.

Benefits for Mentees:

  • Direct contact with executives and senior managers from German companies in the UAE
  • A four-month complimentary mentoring program
  • Access to internships, future employment opportunities, and intercultural training via the AHK

On this special evening, Emirati students and young professionals received their certificates and celebrated their achievements with their mentors.

We are delighted with the successful closing ceremony of the third session of Der IMPULS and would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who made this journey so meaningful and inspiring.
