Lubnan
The global house of Lebanese expertise.

An institution for the Lebanese who build, decide and advise, in Beirut, São Paulo, Paris, Dubai, Abidjan, Sydney and every place we landed. Admission is by application and review.

Non-partisan. Non-sectarian. Membership-funded. Founded to convert the most dispersed diaspora in the Arab world from a sentiment into an instrument.

The proposition
Know who is out there.

A verified register of Lebanese seniority across forty-seven countries, searchable by sector, jurisdiction, function and expertise. Most of these people you would never have found.

The register
Reach them properly.

No cold approaches. Introductions travel through a member who knows you both, and the record of who introduced whom is kept.

The floor
Act together.

Published positions, commissioned research, and a standing voice on the economic and institutional questions that concern Lebanon and the Lebanese abroad.

Impact and diplomacy
One country, ninety years of leaving.

Between four and fourteen million people of Lebanese origin live outside Lebanon. Nobody has ever counted them properly, because nobody has ever had reason to. We do.

Distribution below reflects the working estimates the register is built against. The interactive map replaces this panel once the founding roll is populated.
