Every time I get introduced to new Startups at startupQ8 event I get so excited and motivated to learn more on how to run our business. Today we get to hear from Sayed Al-Mohri the co-founder of Next , I totally liked the idea of being able to pay  a company or an individual using my phone. I Immediately thought of Ibrah (our hand made accessories) once they explained how it works Watch the video to understand what I'm talking about that means we could send invoices to our customers and they pay us through this application. Next will only charge us 2.5% for each transaction  The only drawback that our customers outside Kuwait can't use the application, as they need to have a Civil ID to register and create an account, and only in Kuwait we have this number, But I learned from the founders that they are work on this issue and they are targeting global markets.

Royal Suite - Living Room Last night we were invited to the newly opened Jumeirah Messilah Beach Hotel for a bloggers event, were they will take us into a tour to see some of the hotel’s rooms and restaurants. The event starts at 7:00 pm and of course I was an hour late, I’m glad it wasn’t just me, The side talk blog was late too :p so the tour was basically for 3, me my sister and the side talk. They greeted us at the entrance and then took us first to see the Royal Suite on the 4 th floor. It has a living room, 3 bedrooms, dining area and a Diwaniya. I found the bedrooms along with their bathrooms to be rather small for a Royal suite, I expected them to be huge. The living room and the dining area were fine in terms of size, but the venetian decor, or let me say the Burj Al-Arab décor is totally not my style.
