By GlobalDataThe event will focus on innovation in the energy sector, offering insight into the latest technologies and innovations in clean energy and renewables.
The event attracts high-profile industry experts from across the UAE. This year will see the likes of Awaidha Murshed Ali Al Marar, Chairman of Department of Energy, UAE and Member of the Abu Dhabi Executive Council, and Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Presidential Affairs, UAE, in attendance.
Work from home week gets underway
Today sees the start of work from home week, a week-long event designed to promote the benefits of allowing employees to work from home.
Those who work from home face lower transport costs and a better work/life balance. They also benefit from avoiding the typical commute, which is associated with improved sleep and lower stress, particularly given the UK’s straining public transport.
However, working from home can pose issues, particularly around cybersecurity.
Personal devices are increasingly being used both at home and in the workplace, in a practice known as bring your own device (BYOD), but these can pose an increased security risk, both in terms of network security and data breaches.
