Having moved to Dubai in 2008, Brendan’s first Project was the iconic Burj Khalifa, despite being scared of heights! He went on to work on a number of 5 star resorts developments and landmark Projects throughout the City before founding Shield in 2018.
It was only then that his love/hate relationship with networking and social golfing events, ramped up a notch.
He is credited with arranging Bita Dubai’s inaugural social/networking meeting in October 2023, where the phrase Bita Craic was first coined, and where he was formally appointed a Board Member.
