♟ Business Chess & Backgammon Dubai
### **This is not a public event.**
On April 5, we’re gathering a **small, curated circle** of entrepreneurs, founders, and professionals in Dubai.
No mass invites.
No open access.
No random crowd.
**Why people come**
Because most networking events don’t work.
Too loud.
Too superficial.
Too many people who shouldn’t be in the room.
We do it differently.
**What happens here**
No pitches.
No сцен.
No forced conversations.
Only a carefully selected group
where connections happen naturally —
through presence, not performance.
**Chess & backgammon?**
Just an excuse.
The real value is the room.
And who is sitting across from you.
**Event details**
📅 April 5
🕖 19:00–22:00
📍 Dubai (location shared after confirmation)
💎 Limited capacity
🔒 Approval required
**Contribution**
💎 **100 AED — charitable contribution**
This is not a ticket.
It’s a filter.
It ensures the right people in the room.
**Important**
We do not aim for quantity.
We protect the quality of the circle.
Once the list is full — registration closes.
**If you feel this is for you — apply now.**
**If you hesitate — it’s probably not.**

At the start of this year, we gathered to look back, set intentions, and imagine the next chapter.
This is the follow-up.
Not a check-in. Not a progress report. A small, facilitated circle to reconnect with what you said mattered — and honestly explore what’s actually happening now.
Together, we’ll explore:
• What you intended at the start of this year - and what that looks like three months in
• What’s surprised you, supported you, or shifted
• What the next chapter needs now that you know what you know
If you were at our January gathering, bring whatever you made or wrote — your word, your artifact, your intention. We’ll look at it with fresh eyes. If this is your first time, you belong here too. You’ll start where we all started: with what’s true right now.
Optional art materials will be available for anyone who wants to reflect creatively alongside conversation. If you brought something home from January, you’re warmly invited to bring it back.
The intention is the same as always: everyone leaves feeling more clear, more connected, and a little lighter.
Space is intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate.
What to Expect
• A small, welcoming circle (not a large meetup)
• Structured conversation so everyone has space to speak
• Reflection, listening, and lived experience — not advice-giving
• Optional creative reflection alongside conversation
• A calm, supportive environment
Who This Is For
Women and underrepresented folks working in or around agile, product, technology, leadership, or organizational change — especially those looking for honest conversation and community beyond frameworks and buzzwords.
Good to Know
• No preparation required
• If you attended in January, we invite you to bring anything you created or wrote (or something that represents your intention at the start of the year) - it’s optional but invited
• Participation is invitational; listening is always welcome
• Creative activities are optional
