On Friday, 22 November 2024, I had the honor of hosting and moderating the first RICS Continuous Professional Development (CPD) and Networking event in Tabuk, held at the MENA Hotel. This event marked a significant milestone, as it brought together professionals from across the region to engage in meaningful discussions and share industry insights.
