Colliers MENA signs Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Gulf Medical University (GMU), College of Healthcare Management and Economics, to recruit students for internships where they will be able to have hands-on experience in the healthcare industry.

The post-pandemic world has seen an increase in the demand for real estate and investment in healthcare facilities has doubled around the world. Providing effective guidance on investment, operations and real estate has been a key service Colliers’ healthcare advisory team delivers to healthcare operators and investors in the Middle East and Africa. Hiring interns from a leading medical university in the region, who are trained to be future leaders, will add value to the services offered by Colliers.

Colliers will support GMU students to expand their experience in various facets of the healthcare sector including; business, strategic and operational planning & transformation, operators’ search & selection, market and financial feasibility studies, valuations, due diligence and private equity. Additionally, the students will be able to propose innovative ideas and solutions during the course of their internship which will then be utilised should they add value to Colliers’ offerings.

The Acting Dean of the College of Healthcare Management, Dr. Moon Moon Haque said, “the local and global healthcare industry has witnessed a shift that has created a severe shortage of healthcare management professionals. The current state of the industry can best be described as fast-growing, turbulent, technologically driven and highly competitive; our MOU with Colliers will unfold opportunities for our students to benefit from industry-specific experience.”
