On September 28th, 2014, a group of friends hosted the very first event out of hunger to connect with each other, learn something new, and broaden our understanding of the Arab world. In the past seven years and 300+ events later, we have grown to a community of 100,000 friends across 30+ cities around the world.

We don't announce the topics beforehand but they vary widely. They are based on a curiosity that the presenter had related to Arab history and culture. The presentations are about showcasing and sharing what they found after spending some time looking into their curiosity.
