Looking for inspiring stories to tell. Sparking conversations between today's movers and shakers.

Hello

Welcome to my official website where you will find a selected compilation of my current work as well as the one I have created, presented and produced.


I shall be also sharing news, stories, pictures. Stay tuned for continuous updates!

About Me

 

I am a talk-show host, public speaker, writer and advocate of promoting Arab achievement and social causes. For more than twenty five years, I have worked with the movers and shakers of the world, inspiring Arabs to break new ground one conversation at a time.


Creating new concepts in a pre-satellite era, I have formed a conduit between the special insight I was collecting from my interviewees and a growing Arab TV audience.


I have always encouraged my guests to open up and reveal their innermost thoughts. A long line of international and Arab figures broke the silence; stepped center stage and bared their souls under the glare of my studio lights. I went on to interview people with great influence such as the Dalai Lama, Farah Diba Pahlavi, Noor Al Hussein, Bill Gates, Luciano Pavarotti, Valentino, Ivo Pitanguy and Zaha Hadid, to name a few.


  In 2010, I decided to take storytelling to the next level and use it as a means of creating impact. I brought together those I have worked with over the years and created TAKREEM Foundation which stems from my faith in a thriving Arab world and my strong belief in the importance of giving back to one’s community by empowering its beacons and honoring its traditions.


In 2018, TAKminds came as a natural next step in the Foundation’s strive to bring about change. By building on its singular momentum and the untapped potential of possible synergies, this initiative aims to unite the TAKREEM community through thought and action-triggering events, talks, and activities. It pushes people to make the most out of each encounter.

  

In 2019, TAKREEM USA Foundation has been set to honor brilliance in advancing humanity, inspiring the next generation of immigrants, supporting initiatives of change agents and connect impactful stakeholders. It envisions to be a reference in the propagation and celebration of excellence in the world.

    

In 2020, I embarked on -yet another- media journey and launched my podcast “Conversations with Ricardo Karam”. This series aims to inspire people by giving them the impression that they are eavesdropping on an intimate one-on-one with the movers and shakers of the Arab world. 


 In 2021, I founded Peacomms, a coaching and public speaking training platform, where a team of prominent experts, coaches, and public speakers will join me on empowering public figures and executives with specific skills to improve their presence and communication skills resence and communication skills. 


In addition to the above, I dedicate most of my time embracing and promoting initiatives and causes, primarily those that are youth and health related and boost cultural and educational progress. I believe that culture can succeed where politics fails. It combines hearts and fights fundamentalism and dictatorship with peaceful weapons.
