About this episode

We’ve got all the insights from the World Governments Summit as Richard headed down there to find out the latest. UAE-based Gargash Group has announced the opening of the Mercedes-Benz Brand Centre, a first of its kind facility in the region. As part of World Radio Day, we broadcast live from the centre at the Dubai Design District and speak to Thomas Schulz, General Manager, Mercedes-Benz (Dubai) about the radical disruption of the auto industry. Plus, as earnings season continues, we hear from not one, but two CFO’s about their latest earnings - first Adnoc Gas CFO Peter Van Driel and then Adnoc Drilling CFO, Youssef Salem.
