I was particularly impressed with the multi-channel approach developed and the scale of Instinctif Partners' international operation as we look to expand our own presence on a regional and global scale. I look forward to working more closely with them as our projects together evolve."

Samantha Bartel, Managing Partner & CEO Instinctif Partners MENA, commented: "Our team is delighted to be supporting Alwaleed Philanthropies to amplify the exceptional work they are doing globally across their four focus areas: empowering women and youth, developing communities, bringing cultures together and providing vital disaster relief.  We are a team who can advise with a multi-channel approach and promote Alwaleed Philanthropies' offering on a worldwide scale, which is key for them at this time."

James Nason, Managing Partner Public Policy London commented: "We look forward to working alongside our MENA colleagues to support the work of Alwaleed Philanthropies and ensure their voice is heard on a truly global platform and that the value of philanthropy and partnerships is understood across the region and the world."

The MENA and London teams began working with Alwaleed Philanthropies earlier this year by providing support at two major events, including Davos 2020, where they received recognition for their 40th anniversary and ongoing commitment to eradicating preventable diseases.

The team also supported them at the World Urban Forum where Her Royal Highness, Princess Lamia Bint Majed AlSaud, leading philanthropist and the Secretary General of Alwaleed Philanthropies, was appointed as UN-Habitat Regional Goodwill Ambassador for Arab States.
