We are The Society: A members-only social club for professionals and residents in Dubai’s Financial Hub!
Social groups don’t have to be:
Many social circles in Dubai can feel impersonal and scattered. Let’s face it, we’ve all been part of those huge WhatsApp groups that eventually get muted and archived, offering little in terms of genuine connection or engagement. But not with us.
- Christopher Hitchens
At The Society, we do things differently. Our community is built around shared values and real relationships here in the heart of Dubai. Whether attending events, engaging in conversations, or participating in activities, you’ll feel supported, accepted, and welcomed!
We pride ourselves on gathering around collective values, shared practices, and thoughtful events.
Connect in spaces designed to bring incredible people together. Our community might just contain your next friend, partner, or mentor.
Learn a new skill, expand your mind, savor amazing meals, explore hidden (and not so hidden) gems of Dubai with an amazing group of humans.
At The Society, you’ll forge connections that transcend the professional, enriching your social and personal canvas with elevated experiences.
- William Butler Yeats
Once accepted, you’ll gain access to exclusive WhatsApp groups, with 12 curated sub-groups covering a broad set of interests and hobbies. Select the ones that resonate with you and immerse yourself in each engaging, like-minded community.
We believe shared principles are the foundation for building an authentic community.
We carefully review candidates to ensure they embody the values of our community and resonate with our principles. Members of the Dubai chapter must work or live in central Dubai. Members are are open-minded, collaborative, and passionate about personal growth.
The Society isn’t about resumés, it’s about building real relationships. Take the time to truly know those around you. We're here to share experiences and cultivate genuine connections that last beyond each event.
Everyone has wisdom to share and something new to discover. We encourage you to go beyond the surface and dive into intellectual, spiritual, and creative growth. Engage in conversations that inspire, learn from those around you, and contribute your unique insights.
We believe in growth through exploration. Our group is committed to expanding our minds and connecting with others on a deeper level. Be part of diverse conversations, challenge your thinking, and embrace new perspectives. By fostering curiosity, we build a community where members learn and thrive together.
In a world full of distractions, we look to create an environment where you can step away and truly be present. Our community encourages meaningful interactions, allowing you to focus on building genuine connections. By immersing yourself in the moment, you’ll create lasting relationships that go beyond the surface.
Play shouldn’t end when adulthood begins. The Society encourages you to embrace fun, creativity, and spontaneity. Through shared activities and lighthearted moments, we reignite that sense of joy, reminding you that play is essential to building connections and thriving together.
Our members have come from all corners of the world to thrive in Dubai’s dynamic, future-focused city. Our members are diverse, ambitious, and well-traveled, embracing new cultures and ideas. Together, we create a community where everyone feels accepted, enriched, and empowered by shared experiences.
Meaningful connections happen through genuine participation. Our community thrives when everyone actively engages—whether it’s attending events, giving back through our philanthropy group, or simply being present in moments that matter. Through action, not passivity, we create lasting impact and shape our experiences together.

Simon Sinek dives into the meaning of true friendship, whether we’ve lost the skill of making real connections, and the impact of remote communication versus in-person interaction.
He also questions if rising individualism is weakening our ability to form meaningful relationships.
