Expo Centre Sharjah (ECS) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with BEEAH Group, the Middle East’s sustainability and digitalisation pioneer, to enhance bilateral cooperation in several fields of mutual interest.
In particular, the two sides are looking to join forces in boosting the Group’s participation in exhibitions and events hosted by the ECS while building the Centre’s capacity to adopt top sustainability standards and practices.
During a ceremony held at the BEEAH Group headquarters, the MoU was signed by Saif Mohammed Al Midfa, CEO of Expo Centre Sharjah, and Khaled Al Huraimel, Group CEO of BEEAH. Several officials from both sides attended the ceremony.
Under the MoU, BEEAH Group will be pivotal in enhancing the Centre’s ability to integrate sustainability practices by providing experts and consultants specialising in the field. In addition, the MoU will enable BEEAH to increase its participation in ECS events throughout the year. The two sides also plan to exchange information on key

This will contribute to meeting the Group’s vision of leading the charge in sustainable quality of life and playing a vital role in advancing the UAE’s groundbreaking work in the field of sustainability, which is evidenced by the nation’s hosting of COP28, its adoption of emissions reduction plans in the economic sphere, and its establishment of the Circular Economy Policy 2021-2031, which aims to achieve sustainable economic governance and effectively utilise natural and environmental resources.
