CEO Network – Connecting Leaders of Swedish Businesses in the UAE
An Exclusive Forum for Strategic Relationships and Executive Exchange
The CEO Network is a initiative by the Swedish Business Council, created exclusively for the CEOs and Managing Directors of SBS’s corporate Gold Members. This invitation-only forum is designed to bring together the top tier of business leadership of Swedish companies in the UAE — not for presentations or reports, but for real conversations that spark collaboration, strengthen alliances, and build the relationships that matter most.
A Network with Purpose:
Intimate, high-level sessions hosted by fellow CEOs
Thought-provoking discussions that go beyond the surface
Opportunities to form partnerships, share learnings, and expand your strategic circle
A platform built on trust, relevance, and mutual value
Official Invitation – Inaugural CEO Network Session
We are delighted to invite you to the launch of the CEO Network, generously hosted by Salah Malek, President of Getinge Middle East & Africa. With a strong track record of innovation and growth in the healthcare sector, Salah is a driving force behind regional business success—and an ideal host for this inaugural gathering.
The session will include an informal keynote by Sergio Hicke, former President of Alfa Laval for Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East. Drawing on more than three decades of global leadership, Sergio will offer reflections on transformational leadership and how to lead with impact in today’s dynamic landscape.
But above all, this event is about connection. You’ll have the opportunity to engage with fellow CEOs, exchange ideas, and strengthen your strategic network in a relaxed yet professional setting.
Following the session, participants are invited to join an guided visit of Getinge’s regional headquarters.
