Abdallah Battah spoke in an entrepreneurship debate at Applied Science University's Entrepreneurship and Innovation Conference about whether social impact or financial considerations should come first.

Abdallah Battah participated as a speaker in an entrepreneurship debate held under the auspices of the Entrepreneurship and Innovation Center (ICE) at Applied Science University, as part of its Entrepreneurship and Innovation Conference. Social impact or finance: which comes first? The debate asked whether entrepreneurship should begin by solving problems and creating social impact, with financial considerations following later, or whether the financial side should be the foundation from which an initiative creates an impact on society. The question offered a way to examine how entrepreneurs think about the relationship between purpose and financial viability, without presuming that the debate settled it in favor of either side. Battah thanked those who organized the event at the university and offered special thanks to Dr. Hashem Al-Louzi.
