The Founders
MBE was founded by twin brothers Page and Jian Magen in 1999. The brothers grew up in Thornhill, Ontario, in an Iranian-Jewish household.

The brothers began hosting social events at 16 years old, organizing parties for their high school friends at a local venue known as the Comfort Zone (now called the Uptown Loft and owned by the Magen brothers). The Magen brothers later expanded into bar and bat mitzvah events after being approached by a mother to host the bat mitzvah for a girl who had attended one of their parties.

Although the Magen brothers started their careers in the event industry, they have since expanded into other ventures. In 2013, they opened a submarine sandwich shop, Belly Busters Submarines. The brothers also own two event spaces in Toronto, The Uptown Loft and The Showroom. They are also the co-producers of two wrestling documentaries, The Sheik (2014) and Sweet Daddy Siki (2017).
