Batelco Awarded by UoB College

Batelco has been awarded for its support of the Second Architecture Forum, Gulf in Focus, which took place recently at the University of Bahrain (UoB). The event, which was organised by the UoB College of Engineering, was held under the patronage of H.E. Minister of Culture and Information, Shaikha Mai Al Khalifa.

The Forum was attended by architectural and engineering students from UoB and from other universities in the GCC region. During the three day event, a number of Doctors and professionals, who are specialised in the field of architecture and engineering, presented papers and studies of their work and research.

Among the topics discussed at the Forum were ways to enhance Bahrain’s heritage and culture through architecture and engineering. Bahrain’s buildings, both residential and corporate, came under the spotlight as the assembled body explored ways to incorporate the Kingdom’s heritage into future structures designed by a new generation of architects and engineers.

An Exhibition for architecture, which was held alongside the Forum, was officially opened by Shaikha Mai.

Both Shaikha Mai and UoB President Dr. Ebrahim Janahi extended their sincere thanks to Batelco for supporting the forum and exhibition.
