Discovering The Power of Network


It’s great. It’s amazing. As soon as you join a network, a world opens up for you. All of a sudden out of nowhere you end up meeting different people connected under a common umbrella called: The Network. People derive inspiration, bring forward plethora of information and open up the way you think and conceive.

The Mosaic Netork brought forward a similar binding. Strangers, all of a sudden turned connections. Right from the Lahore Airport I met Adil and Memoona, next my old buddy Afzal at Abu Dhabi Airport who coincidently turned out to be a part of Mosaic. And just before stepping out of the plane I happened to bump into Salman, Tabinda and Rizwan. By the time we collected our baggage and stepped out of Heathrow Palwasha was there and that completed the group from Pakistan. Before heading to Cambridge, Ahmad and Afrah from Bahrain joined in as well. Stepping into Clare College Cambridge, Aarij, Lina, Betul, Zara and Sharif from Pakistan, Egypt, Turkey, UK and Oman were ready to greet. And the story goes on. Fourteen plus new acquaintances, yet to gel in a strong bond over the next few days, all within less than 24 hours.

"Always pay it forward and never forget to pay it back. It's how you got here and it defines where you are going". - Brian Solis.

That’s the power of network !!!

Mosaic Netwrok


Mosaic was founded by HRH The Prince of Wales in 2007 with an aim to develop and groom young muslim leaders from around the globe who can further contributes towards bringing a positive change in the society.

Mosaic works towards a more integrated and thriving society where all individuals, regardless of background, are supported in realizing their potential.

The Prince of Wales has set the objectives for Mosaic simple and straight: to extend a helping hand to those members of our Muslim communities who need it, and together with our other diverse communities, about whom I happen to care a great deal.

To achieve this, Mosaic aims to:
- Increase education opportunities for those who do not have them
- Increase opportunities for understanding between people of different backgrounds

Mosaic operates in the U.K as a set of initiatives championed by Muslims aimed at raising aspirations and providing opportunities. Internationally Mosaic reaches into 17 countries via an emerging leaders development programme and opportunities for established leaders to gain insights into key social and environmental issues. Mosaic is also now being established in Bahrain, Qatar & U.A.E by individuals and organisations who have embraced the principles developed within the U.K. under His Royal Highnesses leadership.
