About Us

An independent journal for the people shaping business in the Middle East.

Middle East Icons is a business and leadership journal about the Middle East. We write about the people who build companies, run institutions and make decisions that reach beyond their own organisations.

What we publish

Our work centres on profiles, interviews and long-form cover stories, supported by analysis of finance, technology, real estate, sustainability, healthcare, hospitality and luxury. We cover the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and Oman, and wider regional markets where the story is strong.

How we work

We aim to be accurate, specific and fair. Subjects are asked to review facts, not wording. Where a feature involves a commercial relationship, we will say so plainly.
