[ClickPress, Wed Nov 28 2007] Hydra Properties LLC, one of the world's largest commercial real estate developers launched Hydra Executives TV Reality show today (Nov. 28, 2007) at the Beverly Hilton, Beverly Hills, CA. Casting for the first International reality TV series
“The Hydra Executives” begins on December 15, 2007 also at the Hilton. Beverly Hills Mayor Jimmy Delshad welcomed the Hydra Properties team at the media brunch and launch.

The show will feature a cast of budding American and British entrepreneurs to be filmed in Abu Dhabi, but broadcast entirely in English. The reality TV series was created by CEO Sulaiman Al-Fahim, Hydra Properties LLC, a leading Abu Dhabi-based international real estate company and the key backer of the show. Abu Dhabi Tourism Authority and Chamber of Commerce and Industry are also sponsoring the show. According to Fahim around $5 million would be spent on the first season.

“We are inviting 16 entrepreneurs, eight Americans and eight Brits, to Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates to compete against each other for 15 weeks,” said Al-Fahim. “Contestants will fly to the capital city of Abu Dhabi where they will spend their first 2 weeks in boot camp to learn the art of the real estate deal and how to identify various playing fields. Following this they will be split into two mixed teams to compete in real estate business assignments for a three month period.” At the end of the competition one winner will walk away with the grand prize worth $1 million to set up his or her own style real estate venture.

The executive boardroom-style program is currently being shopped for global distribution in March 2008. It is being produced in association with Showtime Arabia, which is partly owned by Viacom, and Dubai's Infinity TV.

“It's little like the Olympics of reality TV,” explained co-host and Executive Producer Ziad Batal. “The show brings 16 contestants into United States and United Kingdom in international teams to compete in business challenges spread over the UAE's thriving capital of Abu Dhabi. The winner receives a $1 million funding prize to start his or her business there.
