Connect
People worth meeting
An open community of people from different fields and paths, with conversations that carry on after the coffee.
You matter. We want to meet you.
An opentable
Majlis is a community where people from very different careers meet, share what they have learned and build together. We are a table, and there is always a free seat.
What Majlis is
Many of us are building interesting things, in companies, universities, culture, the public sector or our own projects. Until now, each of us did it alone. Majlis is where we sit down together: an open table, with a clear purpose.
The table
The free seat
The name
A majlis is the place where we sit down to talk
The word comes from Arabic and names the space where a community gathers to talk, listen and think together. Majlis was born in Mayrit, the Andalusí name for Madrid.
- The octagon
- The table, open on every side.
- The dot
- The seat we leave free at every table, for whoever arrives.
What we do
One table, three ways to sit down
02
Inspire
Careers told first-hand
Real stories, no magic formulas, that widen what you think is possible.
03
Elevate
Ideas that take shape
Collaborations, mentoring and projects that start at the table and are built beyond it.
How it works
Tables in every city and a national gathering
During the year we meet in each city, in small groups. Once a year, the whole community comes together at the national gathering.
City tables
People from different fields around one table. Each one has its own format: tables by sector or by topic, speakers or open conversation.

- Access
- By invitation. If you'd like to come, write to us and we'll try to find you a seat.

What about your city?
Tell us where you are. Requests help us decide where to open the next tables.
Community
A table grows one person at a time
The community grows when someone brings someone else. If you know someone who should be at the next table, send them the invitation.
Invitation
Shall we save you a seat?
City tables are by invitation and seats are limited. We review every request so each table brings together people from different fields, and we write when we open one in your city.
Rather write to us? On LinkedIn or by email, and we'll try to find you a seat.
