The second season of Sadeem kicks off on Saturday 2nd March 2019.  The competition is strong this year with 20 of the most powerful and promising young content creators selected from the region.

The series aims to find the best up-and-coming content creators in the Arab world and provide them with the latest technology and expertise to maximize their impact.  

The 20 finalists will compete for the title of Best Content Creator and Influencer on social media in the Arab world, win a prize of One Million Riyals, and have the opportunity to produce their own social media show.

The contestants of Sadeem season 2 each offer different content types such as travel, adventure, fashion, beauty, comedy, entertainment, education, inspiration, lifestyle development, rap, poetry and environment. With so much talent, the bar has been raised even higher this season, making the selection process difficult for the jury members.

Sadeem’s main goals include building the participants’ self-confidence, helping them make a difference in their communities, in addition to guiding them as to how they can spread a message of hope and positivity across the Arab world. Sadeem is an important reference point for all young Arab influencers who want to make popular and purposeful content in the future.

The jury members are made up of some of the most influential names in the MENA region, including Ascia from Kuwait, DZ Joker from Algeria, Zap Tharwat from Egypt and Ahmed Sherif from Bahrain. They will guide the contestants and help them develop their skills through a series of motivational lessons, important tips, training, daily workshops, and weekly challenges, in order for them to become the best content creators in the Arab world after taking part in Sadeem.  The criteria for evaluating the contestants lies in the type of content they present, and the content’s positive impact on the community around them. 

Algerian YouTuber, DZ Joker, said: “I personally expect a lot of creativity from them, for them to be excited about this adventure, and to dazzle us, which is the most important thing.”

Highly influential fashion blogger and designer, Ascia, said: “For Sadeem Season 2 I am expecting phenomenal content paired with out-of-the box ideas to impress us all. I think this year will hold a lot of excitement!”
