ITP Media Group has launched Complex MENA as a social-first, video led platform covering youth culture.
It is a regional edition of US-based Complex, with coverage including fashion, streetwear, sneaker culture, pop culture, music, sport and arts.
Maha ElNabawi, who was formerly Managing Editor at Billboard Arabia, leads the title editorially as Chief Editor and Head of Content.
“Honoured to be launching Complex into the region, a brand I grew up on, which helped me understand the power of hip hop, music and pop culture,” she said. “As I build this team, my goal is to work with those at the centre of their respective scenes. And so far, we’ve got a contributor pool made up of dozens of passionate creators and voices in almost every major city in the region.”
