Century City stakeholder Chris Nassif makes list of Lebanese Most Influential People.
Veteran Agent turned producer Chris Nassif has turned up in an unexpected place, as one of the most influential Lebanese people. Nassif has long been a supporter and frequent visitor to Lebanon even during some of the most dangerous times in the country’s history. Nassif has booked a long list of celebrities for tours and engagements in the Middle East for many years. He has also raised money for philanthropic endeavors to ease the pain of his relatives and friends that have suffered due to circumstances beyond their control.
Those that know Chris Nassif know that his own dedication to Lebanon and Lebanese causes qualifies him for this list and inclusion among the best and brightest Lebanese. The book’s vision presents the spirit of the honorees to the world. "Despite the difficult times this country has gone through, despite the tragedies we have witnessed and the hardships we have encountered, it is evident that we are survivors. Flip through our pages as we introduce you to 100 of the finest and brightest Lebanese. This book entails success stories from around the world - from surgeons and engineers to philanthropists and artists, from entrepreneurs and musicians to innovators and celebrities, the Lebanese, from all walks of life, have made us proud in one way or another. The journeys you read about within our pages portray hard work, perseverance, learning, sacrifice and most of all, love and a zest for life.”
Asked about this honor Nassif simply states, "We all need to do whatever we can to help our families and I am happy to have known so many terrific Lebanese people who have impacted and enriched my life with their grit and determination in the face of adversity. If you are Lebanese, you are my hero – my family.”
The launching ceremony of the book that chronicles the "100 Influential Lebanese Figures Around the Globe” will take place on March 17th at the Kempinski Summerland Hotel & Resort in Beirut.
