EurAsia Gulf Hosts Tbilisi Majlis with Forbes Georgia
Bridging the Caucasus and the Gulf Markets
Located in the heart of Georgia, the elegant Swissôtel Tbilisi provided the ideal setting for the inaugural Tbilisi Majlis Dinner. Organized by EurAsia Gulf in a strategic collaboration with Forbes Georgia, this premier gathering was dedicated to unlocking lucrative business and investment opportunities within the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) nations, specifically the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait.
The evening commenced with insightful welcome speeches that established a highly collaborative tone for the event. Shota Dighmelashvili, Chief Editor at Forbes Georgia, and Maka Natsvlishvili, General Manager of the EurAsia Gulf Georgia Chapter, addressed the distinguished attendees. Their opening remarks thoroughly explored the cultural nuances of working with the UAE and the broader GCC region, emphasizing how a deep understanding of these regional differences is crucial for establishing long-term, successful international partnerships.
The Traditional Majlis Concept in Tbilisi
The underlying concept of the Tbilisi Majlis is deeply inspired by the centuries-old traditions of the Arabic world. In the Gulf region, a "Majlis" is recognized as a warm, hospitable setting where community members, business leaders, and decision-makers gather to discuss pressing matters spanning business, investment, and cultural affairs.
By bringing this authentic atmosphere to Tbilisi, EurAsia Gulf successfully created a unique ecosystem that fostered meaningful connections. The relaxed yet fundamentally professional environment allowed participants to bridge cultural gaps, encouraging transparent conversations and the building of foundational business trust.
High-Level Networking and Strategic Insights
At the core of every EurAsia Gulf Majlis event lies the immense value of high-level business networking. The Tbilisi event featured an engaging and interactive format strategically designed to maximize attendee participation. Following the formal addresses from the distinguished guest speakers—who shared firsthand experiences and strategic insights regarding the Gulf markets—the event transitioned into a dynamic open-floor discussion.
Attendees were highly encouraged to actively participate, utilizing the platform to introduce themselves and their respective enterprises to a curated group of regional professionals and international investors. The evening facilitated direct Question and Answer sessions with market experts, ensuring that all participants gained actionable intelligence. Furthermore, attendees benefited from personalized, one-to-one introductions explicitly designed to expand their international reach and catalyze cross-border trade.

The remarkable success of the Tbilisi Majlis Dinner was made possible by the robust support of its partners and sponsors.
