Ahmed Sultan Bin Sulayem Biography

Ahmed Sultan Bin Sulayem is one of the most popular and richest Businessperson who was born on March 13, 1978 in Dubai, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Bin Sulayem’s first job after graduating from college in the late 1970s was as a customs inspector at Dubai’s then sleepy port. He told Fortune Magazine in 2008 that his future career was set when a man mistakenly came into his office one day and in the course of chatting suggested that Dubai could serve as an entrepot for the tea trade if it created a tax-free zone at the port. That chance meeting encouraged him to travel the world studying tax-free trading zones. When he returned home he approached Dubai’s future ruler and family friend Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum with a proposal to build a free trade zone at the port. “If you really believe in it, you go run it.” Bin Sulayem said Sheikh Mohammed told him. “I was 30.”

The Wall Street Journal’s influential Heard on the Street column said in October 2009 that Dubai World “has just been radically restructured after running up almost $60 billion of liabilities on ill-judged acquisitions like struggling Madison Avenue retailer Barneys and the Queen Elizabeth 2 liner, which has since largely languished in a Dubai dry dock” and that “surprisingly, senior management remains in place, including Sultan bin Sulayem, the chairman who masterminded the expansion.” Sulayem was finally removed from his post in December, 2010 and was replaced by Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, a member of the royal family.

Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem (born 1955 in Dubai, UAE) is the Group Chairman and CEO of DP World. Bin Sulayem is currently involved in Seven Tides International, a diversified Real Estate Investment and Development Company in Dubai UAE. On 30 May 2007 Bin Sulayem became the Chairman of DP World.
