The Executive Director of the Issa Foundation, Tony Issa, the Executive Director of IPT, Zakhia Issa, and company staff participated in the meeting. In a brief word on the occasion, Fayyad said: "We want a sustainable partnership between the private and public sector in order to highlight to the Lebanese and to the world models of success, in private or public institutions, as national champions who spread the values and capabilities that distinguish Lebanon at the regional and global levels.' He praised the work carried out by IPT, 'particularly the development of the annual sustainability report that sheds light on environmental, social, and public safety matters, which is very important and reflects positively on the entire Lebanese so ciety.' Fayyad underlined the spirit of a true partnership relationship based on trust, facts, truth, and public interest, noting that "if the relationship is good with the private sector, that does not mean that it should be at the expense of people and public money and the state, but rather by finding a built balance based on trust, justice, respect, law, and honesty."
