Two Pakistani women, Shaista Asif and Shazia Syed, have been named in Forbes’ list of the Middle East’s 100 Most Powerful Businesswomen for 2024. This accolade underscores their significant contributions and leadership in the region’s business sector.
Shaista Asif, co-founder and Group CEO of PureHealth Holding ranks fourth on the list. Since establishing her healthcare network in 2006, Asif has been instrumental in its growth, culminating in her appointment as Group CEO in December 2023.
Under her leadership, PureHealth Holding successfully launched an Initial Public Offering (IPO) on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange in December 2023, raising $986 million.
This IPO was notably oversubscribed, indicating strong investor confidence. Furthermore, PureHealth expanded its operations by acquiring Circle Health Group and Sheikh Shakbout Medical City, solidifying its position in the healthcare industry.
Shazia Syed, holding the ninth position on the Forbes list, serves as the General Manager of Unilever North Africa, Levant, and Iraq, in addition to her role as Arabia’s Senior Customer Development Lead.
With a career that began as a management trainee at Unilever Pakistan in 1989, Syed’s experience spans various leadership roles, including CEO of Unilever Pakistan. Her board positions at United Bank Limited, Pukka Tea, and Pepsi Lipton highlight her broad influence in the business world.
Forbes’ inclusion of Asif and Syed in their prestigious list celebrates their achievements and the positive impact they have made in the Middle East’s business landscape, setting a benchmark for leadership and success in the region.
I think I have been scammed by Bitmartsd.com. I was invited to trade at bitmartsd.com and I transferred funds (86,000 USD) there. They said I have to transfer another 5000 USD after seeing a supposed profit of 44,000 USD added to my initial capital or else they will block my funds which I did and I was asked to transfer another 10,000 USD then I started suspecting it to be a scam, the website also looks much simpler than the bitmart.com website. I did my research and came in contact with “Recoverycoingroup at gmail dot com” who recovered all my funds in less than 72 hours. Although it wasn’t free, it was worth it. I promised to let everyone know about the Recovery Coin Group (RCG). I strongly recommend RCG.
