Over the course of 2023, Sulaiman Hakemy, opinion editor at The National, had the chance to sit down with three international thought leaders to explore the big ideas in the realms of media and business strategy, public opinion and space science.

They represent these fields, bring fresh insights to the table and go beyond the narratives in the context of the Middle East region.

On this episode of the Big Ideas Edition, Sulaiman speaks to Raju Narisetti, global publishing director at McKinsey & Company.

They talked about the business of journalism, the profitability of the media landscape, internet access in different regions and how technology will continue to transform the industry.
