An initiative recently launched on the web is making a bold statement that "Design will save the Arab world!". Redesign Arabia aims to bring design, in the widest sense, into the contemporary mainstream life of the Arab region. And has, controversially, launched a competition to design the identity for a 'Free Arab Union', a European Union-like cooperation body.

The first Tuesday of every month will be bringing together industry experts, technologists, idea generators and other enthusiasts for two hours in a casual meeting in Amman. During the Social Media Edition, the speakers will tackle social media and its history in the region, challenges, how to monetize on social media and success stories among other important topics. The Social Media Edition will be held on July 13th, at the Princess Sumaya University for Technology - Friendship Hall.
