Maison Safa

II · Events

A calendar of conversations.

From a table of twelve to a conference hall: dinners, salons, campus sessions and conferences on ethical finance, in the cities Maison calls home. Dates and rooms are shared with members.

The calendar

For members only.

Dates, rooms and guests are shared inside the Maison, in each member’s account. From the outside, you can only see that the season has begun.

Six formats

From a table of twelve to a conference hall.

Every format has one subject, ethical finance, and one rule: what is said at the table stays at the table. It starts on your first day.

  • A table set for six by candlelight

    Maison Dinners

    Twelve, seated

    Monthly, in member cities

    Twelve at a table, seated with care: a founder beside a scholar, a doctor beside a banker. Private rooms, no speeches, one good question.

  • A green library room with armchairs and books

    Salons

    20 to 40

    Every season

    Intimate conversations with scholars, founders and the people building the group. Recorded for the private library when the guest agrees.

  • An old university lecture hall in afternoon light

    Maison on Campus

    40 to 150

    With partner universities

    Talks, case sessions and mentoring with universities and Excellence University, where members meet the next generation of ethical finance.

  • A coffee on a marble table

    Meet-ups

    4 to 15

    Whenever members cross paths

    Breakfasts, coffees, walks and games nights, plus “who’s in town”, so members meet when their travels cross.

  • A conference hall before the doors open

    Conferences

    A Maison table, a quiet room

    Through the year

    A Maison table, member seats and a quiet room at the ethical and Islamic finance conferences that matter.

  • A white arcaded courtyard with a fountain

    The Annual Gathering

    Every member

    Once a year, in a city the Assembly chooses

    All of Maison in one place: conversations, the Assembly in person, and time to simply be together.

Where Maison opens

Global cities. Six to start, then the members decide.

  1. The first year, from autumn 2026

    Mexico City · Malta · Guangzhou · Istanbul · Doha · Madrid

    A host in each city, three founding dinners of twelve by invitation, the first campus sessions and the first Salon.

  2. Then, by vote

    London · Paris · Rome · Khobar · Turin · Manchester · Amsterdam

    Residents and Citizens choose the order in the Maison Assembly, a Citizen’s vote counting twice, and may add a city where members already gather or where the group already works, with its companies, clients and partners.

  3. Any time, special events

    Cities we are exploring · Cities key to their region

    With universities and allies, Maison may hold a special event in a city before it opens there: a workshop, a talk or a dinner. Members hear first.

A plan, not a promise: hosts come first and dinners follow, and the Assembly may change the order. Dates and venues go to members only.

How Maison opens a city

  1. 01

    A host

    One respected member who knows the city, reads its requests and seats its tables.

  2. 02

    The founding table

    Three dinners of twelve, by invitation only.

  3. 03

    Campus

    One university session each semester, with speakers Maison brings.

  4. 04

    The list opens

    Requests from the city are read; a waitlist when the tables are full.

  5. 05

    The rhythm

    A dinner each month, a Salon each season, meet-ups when members cross.

Members only

Invitations reach members privately.

We never publish the date, the room or the guest list. Seats are few and seated with care; Residents and Citizens can take theirs with Maison Credits, and hosts are named city by city.
