Omar Al Zeidi and myself sit with Azzan Al Kindi, Co-Founder and CEO of Rihal. We openly discuss Azzan’s career story, and the success journey of Rihal. He talks about the origins of the company, as well as the strategies and future plans of the company including the recent stake acquisition by OICT and continuing to be a client centric organization. Azzan elaborates on the need for the start-up tech sector to continue attracting young talents and the need to encourage entrepreneurship. He also outlines the main characteristics of data driven organizations and some of difficulties he has faced with some less data driven organizations. We also ask him about the main advantages companies such as Rihal have over well established service companies, especially in the region’s energy sector. He finally gives an insight to aspiring entrepreneurs on what to expect, and the best advice he has received. Please have a listen
