Sharjah Entrepreneurship Festival hosts first Arab mountaineer to Everest, Lhotse.

Qatari mountaineer Fahad Badar, who had four fingers amputated due to frostbite in 2021, has become the first Arab mountaineer to summit both Everest and Lhotse in a single trip. Badar underwent surgery in November 2021 but scaled K2, the world's second-highest peak, in less than a year. Sharing his story of overcoming challenges, Badar was part of a lineup of speakers and panelists at the Sharjah Entrepreneurship Festival (SEF 2024), where he urged people to pursue their passions and strive for success despite setbacks.
