One question.
Enough time.
A considered conversation around an idea or decision, with people who can bring different experiences to it.
WYLD Collective / taking shape
WYLD’s women’s collective is taking shape in Dubai around the work women are building: a business, a body of work or a question that needs the right conversation. We are developing salons, working circles and shared experiences with a clear purpose, thoughtful introductions and room for different perspectives.
The rooms we are developing
Different formats for different kinds of connection. Each one begins with a clear purpose.
A considered conversation around an idea or decision, with people who can bring different experiences to it.
A small group for working through a practical question, sharing knowledge and leaving with a clearer next step.
A cultural or creative experience where the activity gives people a natural starting point for conversation.
Dates, places and participation details will be set as each room takes shape. An enquiry helps us understand which conversations would be useful.

Considering the whole experience
A useful gathering has a clear purpose and a feeling of its own. We consider both as each format takes shape.

The spirit of the collective
Begin with what someone has built, learned or changed. Let them name the challenges they want to discuss.
Make relevance clear. Respect someone’s time and give both people enough context to choose.
A good connection creates possibilities. Each person decides what to share and which next steps to take.
Our journal looks at real businesses and the decisions behind them. Achievements lead. Challenges appear in the words and context of the women who describe them.
These are public-source editorial stories, separate from participation in the collective.
The WYLD Collective is taking shape for women building businesses, culture and ideas in Dubai. It begins with their work and the conversations they would value. The formats being developed include salons, working circles and shared experiences, with thoughtful introductions and a clear reason for people to gather.
The first Collective rooms are still being developed. Dates, places and participation details will be set for each format as it takes shape. The website currently previews the approach; the enquiry and subscription forms remain in preview while the team inbox is being decided. No submission is sent or collected.
Tell us about your work and the conversation you would value.
