The 澳门王中王 Gulf live lunch talks are a series of digital events that highlight voices from across the Gulf, where presenters are given the chance to delve deeper into their projects. The aim of this series is to highlight various views from across the Gulf while hosting a live open Q&A session with the audience.
Past events have been attended by around one hundred participants, with delegates tuning in locally from the Gulf, and globally from countries such as the UK, China, India and Nigeria. Our special guest speakers showcase a variety of architectural knowledge that can benefit practices not just in the Gulf, but around the world.
