Industrial Visit to the 3m Innovation Center: A Day Of Innovation and Insight

Date: 26 November 2025

Our Higher National students from Business, AI & IT, Healthcare, and Construction Management visited the 3M Office and Innovation Center at Dubai Internet City for an enriching industry learning experience.

The visit provided valuable real-world exposure, from understanding 3M’s global influence to exploring cutting-edge technologies and engaging with hands-on innovations.

We extend our sincere

thanks to the 3M team for their guidance and support:

• Arlene Vilos for the warm welcome
• Sharda Rao for seamless coordination
• Ismail Mapara for sharing insights on 3M’s global footprint
• George Barmakian and Halil Kardicali for their informative business and legal compliance session

A key highlight of the day was the Innovation Center tour led by Dina Badawy, where students explored breakthrough solutions and real-world applications of 3M technologies.

GBS Dubai remains committed to fostering strong industry and academic partnerships that support practical learning and empower students with future-ready skills.
