The City Circle organises monthly gatherings which acts as forums for intellectual discourse, spiritual nourishment, community activity and social networking. Monthly events are usually held on the last Saturday of each month, with sessions commencing at approximately 2pm, except during the month of Ramadan and December. The City Circle is an open circle for open minds. It provides an atmosphere where individuals are pushed to think outside the box. NCEIS is proud to be a sponsor of this event.
