The Hydra Executives is sort of a copycat of The Apprentice show. Instead of Sir Alan Sugar (or Donald Trump in its US version), you've got Sulaiman Al Fahim (who, by the way, also bought Manchester City Football Club). However, as far as I understand it is not an Apprentice, it's a separate albeit copycat show. Only recently did I find it out when a friend told me that it's taking place in Abu Dhabi, and having been a fan of Sir Alan for some time, it intrigued me, so here's a link for those who haven't watched any of it.

i saw a few episodes, and i liked the show although not the extent i like the uk version.. my feeling is that i don't learn from it as much as i learn from the uk version
so you not learning enough from it, demmers? try the US version, I used to to "kill time" wtaching it while I was in the US.. it was not full of meaning, but it's REALITY right? even if their show's reality is stupid, they show you waht it is and you choose what you want to watch
i didn't know this show exist. i watched the first two episodes - interesting. it makes me visit the Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi
I watched the first show only. I am afraid I have to say that I was unimpressed. I did not even understand what the task was for the two teams and in the end of the show the "boss" dismissed one of them only on the basis of a personality test which all of them had to take prior to the task. So was the task useless?... It also looked to me more like mafia-style than like business style.
