H.E. Khalid Sedeeq
Co-Founder & Chairman
​
Khaled is a dynamic and innovative Emirati. He served as an adviser in the presidential court from 1997 to 2005, and then to the Crowned Prince of Abu Dhabi His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, from 1982 up to the present.
​
As a business oriented person, he established his own transport company in 1979 in UAE. He later (1982) ventured in Austria with a 500 employees furniture company in. Since then he has been very much active in business by establishing and/or sponsoring a number of both local and foreign companies in the UAE.
​
His interest in arts and culture were so strong that led him to engage in trading antiques and precious collections in 2002. He also partnered with Alfaro Watches in Geneva in creating several luxury watches for the UAE in 2003. With his strong purpose of focusing his business portfolio in arts and sustainability as his main contribution to Abu Dhabi’s culture and tourism industry, he opened Etihad Modern Art Gallery and Art House Café in 2013. It is for this reason that the group of companies holds a strong brand in UAE as a champion of arts, culture, and sustainability.
With his notable contributions to humanity — through his initiatives and business ventures in art, culture, and sustainability — Khaled’s nomination for Doctor of Humanities has been accepted by Panpacific University (Philippines) for an honorary degree.
