Barrett's trip will include meetings with government officials, educators, and telco-providers to discuss various technology topics including broadband Internet access, on-line education and digital inclusion. By working with local governments and educational bodies and discussing the benefits technology has on society, Intel seeks to help and enthuse the future leaders of the Middle East to achieve their maximum potential. This is achieved by broadening access to computers, the internet and the other tools to further their education and use of the global online community.

Commenting on the April visit , Samir Al Schamma, Intel Gulf Countries General Manager said,

'Our chairman's visit to the Middle East is testimony to the phenomenal growth opportunities in the Arab world in terms of ICT development. Intel has been in the UAE for over 12 years and has witnessed the significant ways in which technology has changed the gulf region and our daily lives. For us at Intel, it is vital that we continue to work with government bodies and major Arab market players to lay technological foundations that will empower generations to come.'
