> Building the US-to-MENA technology corridor as a media platform, advisory practice, and investment thesis simultaneously.

Twenty years of enterprise technology across MENA teaches you to read markets differently.
I spent the better part of two decades in operator roles at three global technology companies, building pipeline and closing deals in markets most US companies don’t understand until it’s too late. That experience became the foundation for everything I do now.
Today I run three parallel tracks:
The CTO Show – 500+ episodes, Top 200 Apple Podcasts globally. I’ve had more founder and CTO conversations in the last three years than most investors have in a decade.
Advisory – working with early and growth-stage technology companies on MENA market entry and GTM strategy.
Investing – actively evaluating US AI, cybersecurity, and deep tech companies with MENA expansion potential.
I also wrote From Nowhere to Next, which draws on everything I’ve learned from those 500+ conversations about how technology leaders navigate inflection points.
If you’re booking a call with me, you’re probably trying to figure out one of three things: whether MENA is the right next market, how to position AI or cybersecurity products for the region, or how to think about the broader US-to-MENA technology corridor as a capital opportunity.
Those are the conversations I’m built for.
