OWSC recently brokered a collaboration between real estate development company Miral and American comedian and actor Kevin Hart. The collaboration was executed through MELT-OWSC, a joint venture of OWSC and MELT Middle East, a consulting and investment entity by US television star Steve Harvey, in a bid to open up the Middle East region to A-list celebrities. In November this year, MELT-OWSC is organizing a bespoke gala dinner and charity auction, hosted by Steve Harvey, and attended by prominent A-list celebrities and key members of the UAE and US government and business communities.
