Last week, we brought three urban masterminds to the stage and asked them to gaze into the crystal ball, to give us actionable insight into how and where we will live, work and play in 2035.

This is what they had to say.

On the first episode of Forum Playback, you’ll hear from Dasha Badrawi, executive vice chairman of Marakez; Ahmed El Alfi, founder and chairman of Sawari Ventures; and Hanan Abdel Meguid, founder and CEO of Kamelizer. The conversation is moderated by The Enterprise Company’s co-founder and special issues editor, Hadia Mostafa.

Forum Playback is an eight-part series capturing the conversations we hosted as part of our annual EnterpriseAM Forum.

A big thank you to all of our sponsors: Banque Du Caire, Beltone, Banque Misr, HSBC, Mashreq, Post for Investment, Arkan Palm, Global Corp, MNT-Halan, Sodic, CI Capital, BCG, and Baker McKenzie.
