The inaugural get-together of the QSUM UAE Chapter was held on 29 February 2008 at the Movenpick Hotel, Dubai with an overwhelming attendance of over 400 of our members and their families. The event started off with a traditional ceremonial opening and continued till the early hours of the following day.
