Zain KSA recently participated as golden sponsor for the graduation ceremony of the third batch of Batterjee Medical College (BMC) graduates. The ceremony was held on the college campus in Jeddah with the support of Makkah Gov. Prince Mishaal bin Abdullah.

After the ceremony, the company was given an honorary award by Sobhi Batterjee, chairman of the board of trustees, BMC, who attended the graduation of more than 200 students of different medical majors.

Zain KSA stated that sponsoring such events is part of its continuous contributions that support higher education institutions in the Kingdom. It has been part of numerous events and activities held by both public and private universities, and had also launched its own initiatives supporting higher education institutions and university students, including the University Development Program, Zain Pioneers, Ambitious Youth and 4G Engineers.

Zain KSA added that all this comes as part of its belief in social responsibility, and the importance of supporting Saudi youth with diverse working experiences through specialized human development programs.
