As a CEO, entrepreneur, investor, Professor of Practice, and seasoned advisor, I am deeply committed to fostering innovation, driving business growth, and crafting extraordinary ventures. At the core of my work lies a passion for empowering research, entrepreneurship, and innovation. My dedication extends to building a resilient ecosystem that promotes collaboration among the private sector, universities, and government, fueling evolution into a hub of technological advancement. In my early days, I built a company called Mixed Dimensions in the fields of gaming and 3D printing. I successfully grew a team of over 100 professionals spanning the Bay Area, Poland, and Amman, and later merged the business with Integral Reality Labs in San Francisco. In my role as an investor, I actively shape the startup landscape, serving on the boards of numerous startups . I am equally passionate about mentorship, lending my expertise to startups in the USA and UK through the innovative OneDay MBA program, offering practical entrepreneurship education. Additionally, I have built a Venture Lab at Princess Sumaya University in Jordan, where we invest in students and faculty to create startups. Driven by a fascination with technology's transformative potential, my journey spans industries like gaming, 3D printing, health-tech, and now AI. Specializing in product innovation, exceptional customer service, and operational agility, I've achieved notable milestones such as raising $50M from esteemed investors, participating in leading tech accelerators, securing strategic partnerships, and orchestrating successful exits, as demonstrated by my company's acquisition by Integral Reality Labs. As a speaker at multiple events, including the World Economic Forum, I remain dedicated to leveraging technology for impact, cultivating an environment where innovation thrives, and guiding the next generation of entrepreneurs. My mission is to continue pushing boundaries and making a difference, one venture at a time.
