Nasser Centre unveils new identity to drive innovation and youth development
The Nasser Centre for Science and Technology has launched its new institutional identity, marking a strategic shift towards innovation, advanced industry, and youth empowerment.
Inspired by the vision of His Highness Shaikh Nasser bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Representative of His Majesty the King for Humanitarian Work and Youth Affairs and Chairman of the Board of Trustees, the new identity reflects the Centre's role in preparing Bahrain's future leaders in technology, artificial intelligence, and industrial innovation.
Aligned with Bahrain Economic Vision 2030, the updated identity positions the Centre as a driver of national development, focused on equipping young Bahrainis with 21st-century skills, supporting institutional growth, and enhancing economic competitiveness.
The logo symbolises the student journey from education to professional contribution, highlighting the Centre's three main tracks: engineering, technological innovation, and sports and business management.
With this rebranding, the Centre begins a new chapter as a strategic national institution committed to fostering talent, advancing technology, and supporting Bahrain's transition to a knowledge-based economy.
