Share Your Expertise With the Arabian Business Community
Arabian Business Times is one of the region’s growing business media platforms dedicated to real insights, real stories, and real expertise from across the Arabian and GCC business world. We do not just publish content — we publish perspectives that matter.
If you have genuine knowledge, experience, or a story worth sharing, we want to hear from you.
Who We Are Looking For
We are not looking for generic writers who produce content for the sake of filling pages. We are looking for people who actually know what they are talking about.
Our contributors include business leaders sharing lessons from the frontlines, entrepreneurs who have built something real and want to inspire others, industry experts with deep knowledge in their specific field, investors and analysts with genuine market insight, women leaders who are breaking barriers and building legacies, startup founders navigating the GCC ecosystem, and professionals with grounded perspectives on technology, real estate, finance, and business.
If you fall into any of these categories, you belong here.
What We Publish
Arabian Business Times covers a focused set of topics that our readers — business professionals, entrepreneurs, investors, and decision-makers across the Arabian region — actively follow and value.
We welcome contributions across the following areas:
Leaders & Interviews — Conversations with executives, founders, and decision-makers who are shaping industries across the GCC.
Expert Insights — In-depth opinion pieces and analysis from professionals with real authority in their field. We want your actual perspective, not a surface-level overview.
Entrepreneur Stories — First-hand accounts of building a business in the region. The challenges, the turning points, the lessons — told honestly.
Women Leaders — Stories, insights, and profiles celebrating women who are leading change in business across the Arabian world.
Startup & Innovation — What is actually happening in the GCC startup ecosystem. Funding, ideas, pivots, failures, and breakthroughs.
Technology & AI — How technology is being adopted, adapted, and built across the region’s businesses and industries.
Real Estate — Market trends, investment perspectives, and expert commentary on one of the GCC’s most active sectors.
Business Guides — Practical, actionable guides for professionals and entrepreneurs navigating the business landscape in the UAE and wider region.
Business Opportunities — Emerging sectors, new markets, and genuine opportunities that our readers can learn from and act on.
Top 10 Lists & Rankings — Well-researched, credible rankings that give our readers a clear picture of who and what is leading in any given space.
What Makes a Good Submission
We have a clear editorial standard and we hold all contributions to it. Here is what we expect:
Your content must be original and written exclusively for Arabian Business Times. We do not accept content that has been published elsewhere or that is being submitted to multiple publications simultaneously.
Your piece should bring something real to the table — a genuine perspective, a lived experience, a specific insight that our readers cannot find in a generic search result.
Contributions should be well-structured, easy to read, and free of unnecessary jargon. Our readers are smart and busy. Write with clarity and respect for their time.
Articles should typically be between 800 and 1500 words depending on the topic and format. Longer pieces are welcome if the depth genuinely justifies it.
All claims, statistics, and references should be accurate and where possible linked to credible sources.
We do not accept promotional content disguised as editorial. Your article should educate, inform, or inspire — not sell a product or service.
What We Do Not Accept
To keep the standard of our publication high, we do not publish the following:
Content that is purely promotional or written as a marketing exercise for your business. Generic articles that could apply to any market anywhere in the world — we are focused on the Arabian and GCC context. Plagiarised or AI-generated content submitted as original expert writing. Poorly researched pieces that make claims without any credible basis. Content that has already been published on another website or platform.
Our Editorial Process
Every submission goes through our editorial review. Here is what happens after you submit:
Our editorial team reads your pitch or draft and assesses whether it fits our audience and standards. If we are interested, we may come back with questions, requests for additional detail, or suggested edits. Once a piece is accepted and finalized, we will confirm a publication date. We reserve the right to make minor edits for clarity, tone, and formatting while always preserving the integrity of your original perspective.
Please note that submitting a piece does not guarantee publication. We receive a high volume of contributions and can only publish work that meets our editorial criteria.
How to Submit
Sending us your pitch or draft is simple. Email our editorial team directly and include the following:
A brief introduction about who you are and your professional background. The topic you want to write about and why it is relevant to our audience right now. A short outline or the full draft if you already have it ready. Any previous writing samples or published work you would like to share.
Send everything to: editor@arabianbusinesstimes.com
Use the subject line: Write For Us — [Your Topic]
We aim to respond to all serious submissions within 5 to 7 working days.
What You Get
Arabian Business Times offers contributors a platform with a genuine, engaged readership of business professionals, entrepreneurs, and decision-makers across the Arabian and GCC region.
Your published piece will include a short author bio with your name, designation, and any relevant links you want to include. Your article will be promoted across our social media channels including Facebook, LinkedIn, and Instagram, putting your insight in front of an audience that values real business expertise.
We do not offer paid compensation for contributed articles at this time. What we offer is reach, credibility, and a well-respected platform to share your voice with a business audience that is actively looking for exactly what you know.
A Note From Our Editorial Team
Arabian Business Times was built on a simple belief — that the best business insights come from people who have actually lived them. Every interview we publish, every expert piece we run, every success story we share comes from someone with real skin in the game.
If that sounds like you, we would love to hear from you.
