We were on space watch today!

27 February 2023. As Emiratis astronaut Sultan Al Neyadi prepares to blast off later today, we speak to a space expert at New York University Abu Dhabi. Plus, as the UAE non-oil economy is set to grow more than 4% this year, we ask Ed Bell about the Emirates NBD view. And, as HUB71 - Abu Dhabi's Tech Ecosystem - launched a new fund for start-ups, we asked Peter Abou Hachem, Head of Strategy and Product, Hub71 what that means for the capital.  UPDATE: These interviews were done before Sultan Al Neyadi's space launch was delayed.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
