Introduction

The Yusuf Bin Ahmed Kanoo Group is a privately held business conglomerate established in Bahrain in 1890. It is one of the largest family-owned multinationals in the Middle East. The Yusuf Bin Ahmed Kanoo Award, since its establishment in 1998, has been encouraging Gulf and Arab specialists in the field of scientific research who seek to spread scientific knowledge in the society. The Yusuf bin Ahmed Kanoo Award comes within the framework of the Yusuf bin Ahmed Kanoo Group’s interest in supporting projects of public service and effective contribution to religious, cultural, and humanitarian projects and in encouraging thinkers and scholars from the Gulf and Arab countries in the fields of Islamic studies, finance, economics and business, and various fields of science and literature. The award bears the name of the founder of the group, Haji Yusuf bin Ahmed Kanoo, in memory of him, as he was known for his interest in science, education and the assistance of science students, in addition to his great contributions to humanitarian and charitable works that benefit the community.

• Second Round

Semi-finalists continue by giving a short presentation of their research before a panel of judges, with a supporting power point presentation.
