THE ARAB INVENTORS

A COMPANY TO TURN THE ARAB PATENTS INTO PRODUCTS FOR THE ARAB AND GLOBAL MARKET

The Background

It started with a meeting at the HQ of the Arab League in Cairo in 2013. Present was the secretary general of The Arab League Dr Nabil Al-Arabi , the second secretary general Dr. Mohammed Altwaijry, the ambassador of Arab culture Mr. Abdullah al Khashramy, various ministers, ambassadors, officials, and businessmen. The First Conference Of The Arab Inventors has been organised by The Arab science club and Dr Henry Abdo CEO of Titanium capital Pte ltd. It was the inaugural meeting of what was to become the Arab inventors company, and it was to be a ground breaking meeting.

For Dr. Henry Abdo, just one item stood atop of the agenda. The Arab failure to take advantage of and make the best of the 100's of thousands of skilled young people pouring out of universities not only in the Arab World but in top centres of education throughout the world, especially having in mind that we do not lack any human, scientific and economical capabilities. Many of these people have the skills and the intellect to take their people forward. Their inventions, however, inevitably finish up at the bottom of drawers left to rot for ever. Or even worse to be sold to companies in the West for a pittance and then see them sold back for a fortune.

Dr Al-Arabi made it clear that it was time for those with the power to act for the sake of the coming generations. He encouraged all the attendants to Imitate Titanium in its efforts towards supporting the Arab minds in order to develop and produce advanced technologies within the Arab lands and make a positive difference.

The second secretary general Dr. Mohammed Altwaijry stated that it is time to put an end to slogans and now is the time to activate the Arab Patented Innovations by applying and connecting them to the Arab Technology, Economy, and Development.

The agreement that things needed to change jumped on a pace with The President of the Arab Culture and Information Centre and founder of the Arab Science Club Mr Abdullah Alkhashramy stressing the importance of having a consumer led economy. The aim is to become a producer led one , with science as the answer. He expresed gratitude to Titanium Capital for sponsoring the conference and H.E. Dr. Al-Arabi, Dr. Altweijry, Dr. Henry Abdo, Dr. Mohammed Alnaschie, Dr. Ibrahim Fawzi, Dr. Wafaa Amer, Dr. Mostapha Othman, Dr. Mamdouh Saad, Dr. Mahmoud Sami, and others for all their valuable inputs.

The Suggestion

Dr Henry Abdo suggested to build thousands of factories in the 22 member countries. Surely the effort and money could be found to take on turning the thousands of patents registered by Arab entrepreneurs into real live businesses. He then promptly offered to fund 70% of all costs. His one condition was that the company had to be registered outside the Arab World so no one country could claim ownership and to ensure global transparency.

Dr Al-Arabi agreed that the traditional way of public funding in The Arab World had failed and was now outdated

Dr. M. Altweijry confirmed that there is unremitting need for supporting the researches and innovations, and that the Arab countries had to match the effort put into innovation by USA and EU, businessmen and institutions.

The Decision

Creating the company THE ARAB INVENTORS , 44% owned by the Arab World (2% per country) including Golden Shares to be presented to the Arab leaders , 5% public shares, 51% owned by Titanium Capital For investing 70% of the total cost, while 30% of all profits will be split between the inventors, and 70% for The Company."
