Dr. Nido Qubein came to the U.S.
as a teenager with no
knowledge of English, no
contacts, and only $50 in
his pocket, yet ended up an
extraordinary business
entrepreneur. An active
business leader, Dr. Qubein lives
daily with challenges that
confront businesses.
Dr. Qubein is the President
of High Point University, an
undergraduate and graduate
institution of more than
4,500 students from over 51
countries and 44 states.
Since taking the helm in
2005, he has transformed the
university into one of the
nation's premier
institutions by raising more
than $150 million and
revitalizing the campus with
28 new academic buildings
and dorms (with a total
investment of
half-a-billion-dollars that
is now leading the way for a
$2.5 billion expansion),
increasing enrollment by
162% and rebranding the
higher education experience
altogether.

His role in reculturing an

actions into meaningful
strategies that businesses

Foundation has provided over
700 scholarships worth more
than $6 million and

additional scholarships to
deserving students yearly.►Read
