Our Story

Built for the Leaders
Who Build the Future

Events First Group was founded in 2023 with a clear conviction: senior technology leaders deserved events built specifically for their world — their challenges, their ambitions, their vision.

We built EFG from the ground up — from relationships forged in boardrooms across Dubai, Riyadh, Kuwait City, and Riyadh, to the agenda-curation philosophy that puts practitioner insight above promotional noise.

Today, EFG runs four distinct event series across eight annual editions, serving a community of over 5,000 technology decision-makers.

EFG Event
Our Values

How We Think. How We Build.

The principles that guide every decision, every event, every relationship.

01

Precision Over Volume

We don't fill rooms. We build them. Every attendee is senior. Every speaker is vetted. Every agenda is engineered for genuine, lasting impact.

02

Trust as Infrastructure

Technology leaders return to our events year after year because trust is not a feature of what we do — it is the foundation.

03

Global Reach, Local Depth

We combine worldwide reach with deep local understanding — every market we enter, we immerse in its nuances and ambitions.

04

Always Forward

Each series, each summit — we are looking at what is coming next and building the room for that conversation before anyone else does.

The People

Meet the Team

The people who make it happen — from strategy to stage, from the first call to the last handshake. We work hard and have fun doing it.
