Organizing a Meetup for the r/SmallBusinessUAE community - Register your interest today!

Hey everyone,

A post by the Mod Team.

We’ve built a solid online community here, but we keep seeing the same gap, a lot of people here are actually building businesses, yet there’s no easy way to have real, in person conversations with peers in the UAE.

We are considering an in person founders meetup tied to this community.

Important points upfront:

• This is just an idea right now
• No venue or date is booked
• This would be a paid (small fee, not crazy) meetup to keep it serious
• Drinks included
• Focus would be on conversation and peer level discussions

Before doing anything, we want to validate if this is something people here would actually attend and pay for.

If you’re interested, we’ve put together a short (3-5 mins) interest form to help shape it properly: https://forms.gle/NPJPQ2qWhoaGt35bA

This isn’t a commitment or a ticket sale, just a way to test demand and understand what people would want or not want.

Also very open to feedback in the comments.
What would make something like this worth your time? And what would immediately turn you off?

If this doesn’t make sense for the community, it won’t happen.

Thanks.
