The Kuwait Projects Company (Kipco) has announced its Platinum Sponsorship of the 31st conference of the National Union of Kuwaiti Students – USA Branch (NUKS-USA).

The event, which Kipco is sponsoring for the fourth consecutive year, will be held from November 26-29 in San Francisco, California.

The conference, which will be held under the theme of ‘Kuwait’s aspirations are fulfilled by its youth’, is the largest gathering of Kuwaitis outside of their country and includes a wide range of programmes and activities.

Eman Al Awadhi, Kipco’s Group communications director said: “The NUKS-USA conference is a landmark event that Kuwaiti students studying in the world’s best universities across the United States look forward to and attend.

“With more than 3,200 students actively participating in last year’s event, Kipco’s involvement promotes leadership and education among Kuwaiti youth, and also provides us with an opportunity to spot and recognize rising talents in many fields. We are looking forward to this year’s gathering, and students’ interactions in a number of events.”

As a Platinum Sponsor, Kipco will be addressing students during the opening ceremony and will host a lunch banquette before the closing ceremony. Kipco will also be sponsoring the much awaited signature standup comedy show, which will be performed by the renowned Ibrahim Khairallah and Moayad Alnefaie.

Marina FM, a member of the Kipco Group, is a Media Sponsor of the event, and will be present to cover its activities. Burgan Bank, the largest member of the Kipco Group, will be present at the conference to highlight career opportunities for graduating students across the organisation. – TradeArabia News Service
