Speed Business Networking DIFC - Let's grow your business together!
IMPORTANT: If you RSVP, it is essential that you attend or update your RSVP status at least one day before the networking session. For an optimal networking experience, we need at least 20-25 participants. If you RSVP and do not attend, it is not fair to those who are punctual and turn up as they said they would. Please be mindful and only RSVP if you are confident you can attend.
7:30 PM to 9:30 PM (PLEASE, BE ON TIME!)
Concrete Restaurant
Burj Daman Tower
DIFC, Dubai
Located on Ground Floor (VIEW MAP - https://maps.app.goo.gl/3u5DZgQrvJPLrv1U6)
**Parking:** 2 hours of free parking are available in the building.
It's fast, it's fun, and the best thing about it is that you get to pitch to many different people within a short period.
All that you need is your business cards (not compulsory) and your presence.
Typically, you would meet many different people, spending only 2 - 3 minutes with each, and it's a great way to meet others. You speak to the person in front of you, and when the bell rings, you move to your left to speak to the next person. View Video of past events (https://youtu.be/ImZAe4OQ1qg).
This gives you a great chance to network with business owners and decision-makers to find the clients, vendors, and professionals you need most.
**Cost: AED 70 cash** (Includes Coffee, Tea, Soft Drinks or Water)
Remember to tell your friends, colleagues and associates and bring lots of business cards!
How to get there: (VIEW MAP - https://maps.app.goo.gl/3u5DZgQrvJPLrv1U6)
IMPORTANT RULES ON TIMING, NO-SHOWS AND CANCELLATION:
1. Please, be on time, so that we can start promptly at 7.30 pm.
2. If you have never been here before, then arrive early, so that you can find us.
3. If you have RSVP'd as "YES" and then do not show up, you will be removed and banned from this group, as it shows you are not professional enough to be a part of this group. You can easily change the status if you know that you may not make it. This is important as we have to make prior reservations at the venue.
4. People arriving late may not be able to join in if we have already begun, as that ruins the flow and transitions around the tables. By allowing people to join late results in meeting the same person twice and missing out on others, which is unfair for those who arrive on time.
Any questions, please call OR WhatsApp Vlad on +971 56 693 0866.

The Open Book Society
### No pressure. No judgment. Just books, curiosity, and good company.
**What to Expect**
This is a relaxed, judgment-free book club created for people who love books, are getting back into reading, or simply enjoy being around curious minds. There is **no assigned book** and **no expectation to finish anything**. Read at your own pace — whether it’s one page, one chapter, or a book you’re still thinking about months later.
Come share what you’re currently reading, something you’ve read before, or even a book you hope to start someday. The focus is not on how much you’ve read, but on the conversations, perspectives, and connections that unfold.
We’ll begin with casual mingling, ease into a light icebreaker, and then let the discussion flow naturally. Expect thoughtful conversations, diverse viewpoints, and a welcoming mix of readers — fast, slow, and somewhere in between — all while enjoying coffee, tea, or your favorite beverage.
**What to Bring**
• Yourself
• A book you’re reading, have read, or want to read
• Curiosity and an open mind
**Location**
Stepup Ceramic Cafe @ Apex Atrium Building, Dubai Motorcity
**Policy**
• Attendees are required to avail any item from the menu
• Please be respectful and listen when someone else is speaking
**Parking**
Free mall in front and back of the building
**Contact**
Rinku — WhatsApp +971 58 558 2680
This is a warm space to slow down, meet new people, exchange ideas, and feel inspired — without pressure, deadlines, or judgment.
$100M Money Models - Alex Hormozi
Thanks for joining the Money Minds meetup group.

\*Guinness World Record: Fastest Selling Non-Fiction Book in History\*
\*\* OVER 5,000,000 COPIES SOLD IN THE $100M SERIES!! \*\*
This book will show you the art of getting more customers to spend more money faster.
If you have a business, this book will help you make more from it.
If you don’t have a business, this will help you start one.
If you have parents, this book will help you retire them.
If you have rivals, this book will help you beat them.
If you have monetary goals, this book will help you achieve them.
I’m not a happiness guru, a fitness guru, an investing guru, or anything else. But, I can show you how to accelerate cash flow in a business - in other words - get more customers to spend more money in less time (over & over again). I know because it’s all I’ve done in my adult career.
I crossed $100M net worth by age 31.
Today: I buy and scale companies at my family office Acquisition.com.
My side hustle: I make content showing how we do it.
My joke life goal is to be the most jacked billionaire.
My real-life goal is to die with nothing left to give.
A little more about the book if you want that…
A Money Model is a deliberate sequence of offers. It’s what you offer, when you offer, and how you offer it to make as much money as you can as fast as you can. Ideally, to make enough money from one customer to get and service at least two more customers in less than thirty days. And it rarely looks clean, but I break $100M Money Models into three stages:
Stage I: Get Cash - Attraction Offers get more customers for less
Stage II: Get More Cash - Upsell & Downsell Offers make more money from them faster
Stage III: Get The Most Cash - Continuity Offers maximize their total money spent
In real life, it happens like this...
First, I get customers reliably.
Then, I make sure they pay for themselves reliably.
Then, I make sure they pay for other customers reliably.
Then, I start maximizing each customer’s long-term value.
Then, I spend as many advertising dollars as I can to print as much money as possible.
This is my cookbook for making money.
It took me over a decade to learn all these tactics. It’ll take you three hours. Use responsibly. Enjoy.

Moneymind Cashflow Community (MCC)
Hello Friends,
**Are you feeling the weight of financial uncertainty?**
Does the idea of building a secure future feel overwhelming, like an impossible climb?
Are you dreaming of a life where money works for you, instead of the other way around?
You're not alone.

Many of us carry the burden of financial worry, the constant pressure to make ends meet, and the longing for a life where we can breathe easier.
We dream of a **future where money doesn't dictate our choices**, where we have the **freedom to pursue our passions** and **spend time with the people we love**.
But the path to financial freedom can seem shrouded in mystery, filled with complex jargon and risky ventures.

Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit - Barret Blake
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
*Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit: From Intent to Implementation*
Spec-driven development flips the traditional workflow on its head: instead of code being the source of truth, the specification becomes the backbone of design, collaboration, and delivery. In this session, we’ll explore how GitHub Spec-Kit enables teams to treat specifications as first-class artifacts—living documents that drive architecture, implementation, and verification.
You’ll learn how Spec-Kit helps teams clearly express intent using structured, version-controlled specs that live alongside code. We’ll walk through a practical workflow that starts with defining system behavior and constraints, then progressively refines those specs into testable, automatable outcomes. Along the way, we’ll show how specs can reduce ambiguity, improve cross-functional collaboration, and make design decisions explicit before a single line of production code is written.
This talk will cover:
--What spec-driven development is (and what it isn’t)
--How GitHub Spec-Kit fits into modern developer workflows
--Using specs to align product, engineering, and AI-assisted development
--Real-world examples of turning specs into implementations with confidence
Whether you’re building greenfield systems, integrating AI into your stack, or trying to reduce costly rework, spec-driven development offers a scalable way to move faster without sacrificing clarity. Attendees will leave with concrete patterns and a clear mental model for adopting GitHub Spec-Kit in their own projects.

In-Person Event: The Answers to Depression & Anxiety
This is an in-person meeting. At this meeting you will get answers to depression and anxiety. Find out the source of them and how to get rid of them.
Did you know that unwanted emotions like anxiety, depression, unhappiness, loneliness, hopelessness, anger, fear, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not due to a chemical imbalance in your brain from some nebulous chemical reaction "by chance".
Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you.
The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life.
Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life.
Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there.
This group is created by the Hubbard Dianetics Foundation of Central Ohio and Church of Scientology of Central Ohio.
