YP Lebanon Kicks Off Entrepreneurship Series with Sold-Out Lecture by
Lebanon's Interior Minister
Kicking off a series of events focused on entrepreneurship, Young
Professionals (YP) Lebanon hosted an inspiring lecture by the Lebanese
Minister of the Interior, Ziad Baroud, on April 17. The event was
attended by 350 Lebanese-Armenian young adults.
At the AGBU Demirdjian Center in Beirut, Minister Baroud discussed
leadership and management lessons gleaned from his experiences in
government. Specifically, the minister explained his efforts to build
confidence within Lebanese society, his project to reshape his ministry,
and his future plans. Minister Baroud's energy and charisma,
accomplished educational background and the challenges he faces in the
administration of a politically fragmented nation make him a motivating
role model for youth.
Guests were able to ask questions on topics ranging from the role of
youth in Lebanese society to the pressures Minister Baroud faces in
government during a question-and-answer session that lasted for more
than an hour.
During an ensuing reception, the guests had an opportunity to mingle
with Minister Baroud and network among each other in a friendly
environment. The minister suggested afterwards that members of YP
Lebanon get involved in his ministry's projects.
The Armenian youth in Lebanon have a regional gathering on the horizon
as the Young Professionals Middle East Forum will be held in Dead Sea,
Jordan, from June 5 to 6, 2010. For more information, visit

AGBU YP Lebanon would like to thank their sponsor, Emirates Lebanon
Bank, for their support and kind generosity.
