Hi tech entrepreneurs! Let's meet up over morning coffee at Cafiene Club, Cluster R, Lake level, JLT. There's plenty of parking nearby. You are welcome whether you are an established entrepreneur, a beginner or an entrepreneur-in-waiting. Join in, bring your learnings and see what you can learn from others. The mission of these events is to help create a community of entrepreneurs. To share information, advice, fresh ideas, tips and tricks, solutions and to build connections with like-minded entrepreneurs. This is a casual, pitch-free hangout. Please, no sales pitches. The event starts from 9.30 and goes on till 12. You are welcome to join at your comfortable time. +++ As an entrepreneur one of the biggest challenges we have is to build connections with others in the game. To freely share the problems and ideas and get the perspective of our peers. To connect and build long-term friendships and partnerships with people who truly get what we are doing and why we are doing it. This is the group that hopes to give you that.

### Business Chess & Backgammon Dubai: Intellectual Leisure for Leaders **Where thinking is an art, and the game is but a reason for deep dialogue.** We invite you to an evening of **intellectual leisure with aesthetic content** at one of Dubai’s most sophisticated venues. **Business Chess Dubai** is a private international community for business owners, investors, and top managers who view chess and backgammon not as a competition, but as a form of strategic thinking and professional dialogue. The Philosophy: Presence Over Performance In a world of noisy networking and constant pitches, we offer a "space of silence." Our meetings are designed for those who value the depth of contact over the scale of the event. Here, the conversation is more important than the self-presentation, and the pauses are as meaningful as the moves. What to Expect: * **Intellectual Leisure:** A relaxed atmosphere for chess and backgammon where your skill level does not matter—it is the caliber of the person across the table that counts. * **A Mature Community:** Access to a closed circle of peers. Our community is part of the global **SHAHMATIST** network, spanning 8 countries and 19 cities with over 3,000 members. * **Safe Business Environment:** We strictly prohibit any form of direct sales or aggressive service promotion. This is a territory of trust and mutual respect. * **Aesthetic & Style:** We gather in premium locations with a strict adherence to a classic or smart-casual dress code to maintain an elegant atmosphere. Event Details: * 📅 **Date:** May 17 * 🕖 **Time:** 19:00 – 22:00 * 📍 **Location:** Attiko, Dubai * 🎭 **Dress Code:** Smart Casual / Classic (business meeting or evening dinner attire) * 💎 **Contribution:** 100 AED (Charitable organizational fee supporting educational and cultural projects) How to Join: Business Chess is a **closed community** exclusively for business owners, investors, and C-level executives. **[Request to Join]** *Your participation is subject to confirmation to ensure the quality and values of the circle are maintained.*
