Anne Habiby, co-founder of AllWorld Network and Atif Abdulmalik, the CEO of Arcapita launched the GCC Fast Growth 100 (GCC100) as a pioneering and prominent program to find and rank the fastest growing private companies of the GCC, the companies creating the next jobs and industries.
With the immediate need to create more private employment in the region, the annual GCC100 has been initiated by the AllWorld Network, with the support of Arcapita, to celebrate and support successful entrepreneurs forging new industries.
These entrepreneurs become part of a network of growth entrepreneurs in the region and globally, facilitating knowledge exchange and cross-border investments. The first GCC100 will be announced regionally and globally in October 2011 at an event to take place in Bahrain. The GCC100 winners will also be eligible for the Arabia 500 – a MENA wide ranking of companies, which will be announced in November 2011 at a three-day Arabia500 Summit in Jordan under the patronage of Queen Rania Al Abdullah of Jordan.
