The national carrier was the Airline Sponsor of the conference, which equips young people with knowledge, skills and regional networks, as well as helping to put Oman on the map as a cradle of entrepreneurship and innovation.

As Oman’s national airline, we work hard to help young people to develop the skills and experience they need to play a full, productive and rewarding part in the Sultanate’s future. Our sponsorship of AIESEC GulfCo is the latest in a series of events and initiative that we have undertaken under the leadership of our CEO, Wayne Pearce, and we look forward to seeing conference delegates make valuable contributions to shaping the nation’s future over coming years.”
