K2, also known as the 'Savage Mountain', is 8,611 km high, making it Pakistan's highest peak and the world's second-highest mountain.
Mashreq sponsored Conceicao's nine-member expedition as part of the global Climb2Change initiative because the Portuguese climber is a Mashreq brand ambassador.
The initiative involves cleaning up K2, K3, and the base camps at Goro2 and Concordia.
Conceicao is also the first Portuguese woman to summit Mount Everest, the highest peak in the world. The 47-year-old is also the holder of 10 Guinness World Records.
