Phil Baty, chief global affairs officer at THE, said the company’s awards spotlighted the truly exceptional achievements of universities, teams and individuals in some of their most critical areas of focus.

A major part of the UK sector for almost 20 years, Mr Baty said it was about time the MENA region had its own opportunity to showcase its best and brightest, and give them their own space to shine.

“We are delighted to bring the ‘Oscars of higher education’ to the Middle East and North Africa for the first time,” Mr Baty said.

“This year represents a landmark moment for THE: our first awards focused exclusively on this vibrant, rapidly changing and ambitious part of the world.

“The scale, diversity and quality of the entries we received clearly justifies our decision to single out the region for special attention.”
