About This Event
Here’s the thing about networking in Dubai: most events are terrible. You know the type. Hotel conference rooms where everyone’s trying to sell something. Forced conversations about the weather. Business cards you’ll never look at again.
We wanted something different. Something real. So we started this monthly event for Fractional Leaders — and people who should be. Once a month, we get together at Garden on 8. No name tags. No presentations. No elevator pitches. Just smart people having actual conversations over drinks.
The conversations are better, the connections are real, and people keep coming back. If you’re already working fractionally, you get it. You’ve escaped the corporate grind. You’re making more money working fewer hours. You’re solving real problems instead of sitting in meetings about meetings. And if you’re not there yet but you’re curious about it, you should be here too.
Why come?
- Meet other Fractional Leaders who’ve figured out the game
- Learn how to transition from full-time corporate to fractional work
- Discover what it’s really like to work with multiple clients
- Connect with Fractional Dubai and see if we’re a fit
- Have conversations with people who understand your challenges
- Skip the usual networking nonsense and talk about things that matter
Who you’ll meet
The crowd stays small by design. We’re not trying to pack the room. We want the kind of people you’d actually want to grab dinner with afterwards. Expect:
- Experienced fractional CXOs sharing real war stories
- Senior executives tired of corporate politics
- People considering the jump to fractional work
- A few entrepreneurs who need executive help but can’t afford full-time salaries
Come thirsty for good conversation. The drinks are optional, but showing up isn’t — not if you want to meet the people who are rewriting the rules of executive work in Dubai.
"I've never been to a networking event with such a high quality and calibre of people. The Fractional model just attracts top talent, and those are the people you're in a room with."
Westley, Fractional COO
