The Arab Entrepreneurs Board

We are delighted to announce a partnership between Diplomat magazine and The Arab Entrepreneurs Board, strengthening connections across diplomacy, business and international relations. The Arab Entrepreneurs Board is a private, exclusive, membership-based international business network, co-founded by Wael Alzein, Founder & Executive Chairman, and Asma Ounnas, PhD, Chief Strategy Officer. 

It connects an influential community of royalty, ultra-high-net-worth individuals, entrepreneurs, investors, C-suite executives, business leaders, government officials, ambassadors and senior diplomats, family offices, hedge funds, private banks, and decision-makers across the UK, the Middle East and beyond. 

Through its curated membership, private events, bespoke introductions and international partnerships, the Board provides a trusted platform for high-level networking, investment, strategic partnerships and international business opportunities, strengthening commercial and economic relationships between the UK, the Arab world and global markets. 

On 4 November 2026, their prestigious Arabreneurs Gala Dinner & Awards Ceremony will return to the House of Lords, recognising and celebrating outstanding entrepreneurs, startups, corporations and business influencers who are shaping the future of entrepreneurship, innovation and investment across the Arab world and the UK.
