MISHAL KANOO Chairman Kanoo Group
United Arab Emirates
SOPHIYA FAIZAL Executive director KEF Living
United Arab Emirates
Another next- generation female rising stars in the Middle East, Faizal’s love of creativity started as a child when she spent her holidays at the foundry owned by her father, UAE industrialist billionaire Faizal Edavalath Kottikollon, so it was no surprise when she became an engineer. Within the $272 million family business KEF Holdings, the eldest daughter has made her mark heading KEF Living, which is developing a model to deliver quality homes 50% faster than using traditional methods.
Mishal Kanoo promotes a philosophy of openness and good communication at his family’s 129-year- old industrial conglomerate – something that is not always easy in the Gulf, where businesses can be notoriously opaque. Since becoming chairman in 2015, he has instigated a restructuring to professionalise the business – removing some family members from management roles and bringing in non-family executives. He is also a strong advocate of education, even teaching a family business course at the American University in Sharjah, UAE.

A University of Michigan graduate with distinction in finance and accounting, Moopen is a part of a group of Middle Eastern next-generation female business leaders.

Overseeing 85 clinics and seven hospitals, Moopen is the daughter of Azad Moopen, an Indian-born physician and philanthropist who has developed numerous healthcare businesses into a $1 billion-a-year group.
