The smart way to read the news
The Executives Brief is built by a small team of Saudis who are genuinely obsessed with business, technology, and entertainment, and frustrated by how much time it takes to stay truly informed. We wanted a smarter way to read the news: the signal, refined, in two minutes a morning.
Why we exist
Every day, thousands of stories break across markets, boardrooms, studios, and labs. Most of it is noise. We built a newsroom that reads the world for you, scores what actually matters to decision-makers, and distills it into briefing-grade analysis, executive summaries, key insights, and clear takeaways, so you can act on what you read, not just read it.
We cover the three worlds we love: business, technology, and entertainment. And we respect your time, because the most valuable thing you own is the minutes you spend understanding.
Ahmed Al-Eissa
The Executives Brief was founded by Ahmed Al-Eissa, a passionate technologist who spent his career inside some of the world’s most demanding technology companies, Microsoft, IBM, and Adobe. Building and shipping at that scale taught him exactly what it takes to create the ultimate news platform: a relentless focus on quality, respect for the reader’s time, and technology that works quietly in the background so the story stays the hero.
Out of that experience, The Executives Brief was born, an attempt to bring the best of serious journalism and the best of modern technology together in one place.
We are only getting started. Thank you for reading, we hope to save you time every morning.
