Community Letter

Date: September 1, 2020

Dear friends and family,

Please take a moment to look at the picture of my first school. This ordinary building was a place that shaped important years of my life and what is interesting is that it is our view from the window of the eSafar’s office! It is absolutely fascinating how life treats us some times.

A lot happened in August, and I got super busy (that is why I’m sending this letter with a 10-days delay).

At the Institute, we started working with the Post Bank of Iran to help them develop their business. It’s a ton of work, but at the same time, It’s so good when the leadership of a giant organization has a vision for its future.

With the help of our partner, Idearun Studio, we also organized INOTEX Stage in August: 55 speakers from 17 countries in 3 days!

We also started to work with Iran’s Cyber Police to advise them with Fintech startups.

In Idea Designers, we have planned for the Idea Designers Academy, where bright-minded people gather to learn more about the future.

At TEDxTehran, we are doing so much! A TEDCircle once a month in partnership with Shaparak Camp. Also, we are gearing up for TEDxTehran Countdown and TEDxTehran Women in October and November. We are doing in collaboration with the embassy of the Netherlands in Iran.

At eSafar, we go where the market goes. We created a low-risk B2B travel type that companies like a lot and we are still learning about our customer needs.

Hope to hear back from you!

My best as always,
Reza
