Lebanon, less than four hours from Dubai by air, is famous for many things.

A deep history, a rich culture, a liberal population and an incredible nightlife scene to name a few. However the country, which has seen a major a boom in start-up investment in the last number of years, is also home to a key tech conference (similar to South by Southwest in the States, or Step in Dubai)- and now the annual ArabNet Beirut is back for its tenth year.

So, this June, along with hitting Beirut to party, ArabNet Beirut is also very worthy of your time. If you’re passionate about tech, entrepreneurship, banking innovation, consumer behaviour and more, this is definitely your jam.
