Lights, action, teamwork… and two **high-energy** rounds of play 🔫 **1 Round of Laser Tag** (15 min) Move, hide, strategize, communicate, and have fun outplaying the other teams in a glowing arena. 🟦 **1 Round of LED Tiles** (15 min) Fast reactions, teamwork, coordination, and those “Wait!

China keeps coming up. But most people haven't gone - or haven't gone with a real purpose. Maybe you've thought about it for your business. Maybe a supplier is based there, or a competitor is sourcing there, or you've heard about the trade fairs and wondered what they're actually like. Maybe you've just had this nagging feeling that China is a bigger opportunity than you've been able to get your head around. Whatever brought you here — you're in the right place. I'm hosting a small, casual coffee / tea session to have an open conversation about China: what it's like to go there with a business mindset, what's realistic, what's changed, and whether a guided, small-group trip might actually be something you'd want to do. This is not a lecture or seminar. It's a conversation with a small group of curious people. Come with questions. Leave with clarity. Some of what we might cover: * What China actually looks like for a first-time visitor * Trade fairs, factory visits, and supplier meetings - what's realistic for someone just starting out * Why so many Dubai entrepreneurs haven't made the trip yet - and what makes it easier than you think * What a small-group guided trip could look like, and whether that sounds useful to you Who this is for: Business owners, entrepreneurs, professionals, or simply curious people in Dubai who have China somewhere in the back of their mind. You don't need to have a specific deal in mind. You just need to be genuinely interested. Format: Relaxed coffee chat, 60-75 minutes, capped at 12 people What to bring: Nothing. Just show up curious. Spots are limited - grab one if this sounds like you.

**🏛️ WHAT'S PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY ABOUT?** **Practical Philosophy is a weekly meet-up that brings critical thinkers together for an opportunity to dive deep on a topic, practice communicating, and building a community. All with no ‘official’ philosophy knowledge required! 😎** **Practical Philosophy is based on the idea that philosophy should be accessible to all, and not something reserved only for academics. Each week we choose a topic, and the goal is to use the conversation to develop our critical thinking and communication as we explore that topic.** **The goal is to help develop our Critical Thinking, Communication, and Community 🙌** **📓 HOW DOES IT WORK?** **Each week, we pick one topic and discuss it. The topic for the week is shared, generally in the** [Whatsapp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/CdjwVxcf2EO6vcLWUhaIdk?mode=ems_copy_c)**, along with jump-off points to get the conversation going.** **General Meeting Agenda** **Each Practical Philosophy meet-up follows this general timeline:** * **3:30-3:45- People arrive and chat, get to know each other before the official start.** * **3:45-3:55 - Meeting introduction, explanation of Practical Philosophy and the topic for the week, read the guidelines and the overview so attendees know what to expect in terms of timelines.** * **3:55-5:20 - Participants share their general thoughts on the topic, open discussion afterwards. At this point the group can review the ‘jump-off’ questions as needed, but they are just there to help guide the conversation. It’s not obligatory to answer them.** * **5:20-5:30 - Bring everyone back together to discuss conclusions, organizer then concludes the meeting and everyone takes a group photo.** * **5:30 - The official meeting is over but it’s a great opportunity to get to know people in a non-structured environment, so we often stick around, chat, and get to know each other.** **🧧PRICING?** **Practical Philosophy Club is FREE to attend! We just ask that that you buy a beverage or food item as our venue requires it to give us a private room.** **💛 WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY** **🗣** **“I feel like Philosophy Club helps someone build their own belief system through a series of perspectives while not promoting what’s right and wrong” - Ekam** **🗣 “I got hooked from day 1 (the topic was authority) and felt it was the right place for me. I feel it is a place where people can go to learn and discuss new perspectives and increase critical thinking and community by interacting with people who might challenge your point of views but at the same time encourage you to have openness and mind flexibility.” - Daniel** **🤓 FAQ** * **What will we talk about? What's the topic?** **The topic for the week is shared every Sunday in the Whatsapp group. We try to add the topic to the comment section on this event page as well but if you don’t see it, the topic and the jump-off points will be in our** [Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/CdjwVxcf2EO6vcLWUhaIdk?mode=ems_copy_c)**.** * **Do I need to study or read anything to attend?** **No preparation is necessary. This isn’t a study of other thinkers. We want to know what YOU think about the topic, not what an old philosopher thought. If you have a perspective from a religion or a school of thought to share, throw it on the table and we’ll discuss it, but it's not required.** * **Is there a specific philosophy that Practical Philosophy is focused on?** **The goal of our meet-ups is to not have dogmatic discussions, and flex our critical thinking muscles. Because of this, we want to hear from every realm of thought, and don't study a particular school.** * **Is it mostly men that attend?** **Surprisingly, no! Although philosophy is seen as a Candelabra affair in a dark room with a bunch of guys, our Practical Philosophy meetups are generally 50/50 between genders, and we don’t meet in any dark rooms.** * **Can I come alone?** **Of course you can, we encourage it :)** * **Can I be late?** **Please don't be! We do have a 15 minute grace period where we allow people to funnel in while we hang out, but after that if you arrive too late, it disrupts the flow of the conversation.** * **Where do you meet?** **The location is posted in Meetup and our** [Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/CdjwVxcf2EO6vcLWUhaIdk?mode=ems_copy_c) **group for this location. It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you join the Whatsapp group!

**The idea for this group is to build a community where men can gather together and build connections & learn and grow from each other.** How we start each meeting is by each of us checking in with our "roses and thorns" aka what are the good things and the bad things going on in your life recently? Then we will go into a topic discussion. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **COMMUNITY AGREEMENTS** \*\*THERE WILL BE A ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY FOR NO-SHOWS. IF YOU RSVP TO A MEETING AND FAIL TO SHOW UP WITHOUT NOTICE, YOU'LL BE REMOVED FROM THE GROUP. THIS IS TO PRESERVE THE INTEGRITY OF THE GROUP\*\* 1. Confidentiality - EVERYTHING that is shared NEVER leaves this space so that this space remains safe and sacred. There is a zero tolerance policy for this. If a man is in violation of this, they will be permanently removed from the group. 2. Non-Judgement - we respect and honor every man’s truth so that we may receive the same from others. While we may not agree on everything, we commit to respecting every man’s perspectives and engaging in honorable discussion with one another. 3. Be committed - honor your commitment to this group and to yourself. If you attend a meeting, please commit yourself fully to the meeting. Also be committed to your own journey. When we fail, we own it & clean it up. 4. Speak from the heart - this is NOT a space to “look good”, have the “right” answers, and have it all together. Relax and know you are not alone. Be exactly who you are within the safety of this space. 5. Be supportive - This means always willing to provide encouragement to your fellow men, encourage action and momentum in each other’s lives.. Be willing to challenge each other. Be willing to hold each other accountable. 6. Participation - what you receive from this community will be a reflection of what you put into it. Period. We ask that you share your perspectives, reflect on others, and give/receive support when and where it’s needed.
