❓Is this an online community? Integrate is primarily an offline community. While we use technology to facilitate event organisation and communication, our emphasis is on in-person interactions to build authentic connections.
❓Why is this for 20s and 30s? We started integrate to help people in their 20s and 30s make friends and feel at home in Abu Dhabi - because that age group often feels the most alone in a new city. But this isn’t our end goal. We’re growing, and we’ve got plans to make space for more ages and stages. Watch this space.
❓Will you extend the age range? Currently, our focus is on serving the 20s & 30s demographic. However, we recognise the importance of inclusivity and are exploring opportunities to expand our offerings in the future.
