KUWAIT CITY, Feb 19: As part of its ongoing commitment to youth empowerment, Gulf Bank has successfully concluded its sponsorship of The Influencer program, organized by the LOYAC Academy of Performing Arts (LAPA), a subsidiary of the non-profit organization LOYAC.
Held from January 20 to February 17, 2025, the program provided youth aged 15 to 19 with a unique opportunity to develop essential skills in public communication and leadership.
Ms. Fatemah Alhabib, Assistant Manager of Corporate Communications at Gulf Bank, emphasized the importance of youth empowerment, stating: “Empowering youth begins with providing them with the skills and tools to express themselves, shape their careers, and make a positive impact in their communities. We are proud of our ongoing partnership with LOYAC, which allows us to support and nurture the next generation of leaders and innovators.”
She added: “Over the past weeks, participants embarked on a journey of challenges and new experiences, developing skills in effective communication, public speaking, content creation, digital marketing, photography, and video editing. More importantly, they gained confidence in their abilities, and learned to share their stories and express their ideas in a meaningful and impactful way.”
Ms. Alhabib emphasized that The Influencer program is more than just a training experience — it’s a platform that brings together ambitious minds, opens doors to new opportunities, and equips young people with the skills to succeed in any path they choose.
The Influencer program provides aspiring youth with a unique opportunity to develop advanced communication skills through interactive workshops and hands-on training.
Covering a range of fields, including effective communication strategies, leadership development, public speaking, photography, video editing, digital marketing, and podcasting, the program equips participants with essential tools for personal and professional growth. Led by experienced trainers and industry professionals, these sessions provide participants with the knowledge and skills to create a meaningful impact in their communities.
