Three more top local entrepreneurs selected

Endeavor lauds high quality of local
businessmen and their solid enterprises

Three new High Impact Entrepreneurs (HIEs) were selected from Lebanon by Endeavor, a non-profit organization set up in New York in 1997 that has pioneered the concept of High-Impact Entrepreneurship in emerging markets. This brings the country’s total HIEs to eight since 2011 when Endeavor Lebanon was first launched.

The three selected are: Taline Assi, of Mosaic Marbles, a global producer of mosaics, Rabih Nassar, of Element N, a leading cloud computing solutions firm for software developers, and Brahms Chouity, of At7addak, the largest online platform for video gamers in the Middle East.
In all, there are 708 HIEs from 443 companies in 13 growth market countries worldwide.

“The quality of the entrepreneurs coming out of Lebanon stands out; the chosen entrepreneurs have created very solid businesses that we are proud to support to help accelerate job creation and economic growth in Lebanon,” said Fares I. Fares, chairman of Endeavor Lebanon.

Endeavor identifies entrepreneurs leading high-growth innovative companies in emerging markets. These entrepreneurs are given strategic advice and access to key networks and other tools. Under Endeavor’s guidance they have become high-impact – expanding employment, generating wealth, and inspiring others to innovate.

Endeavor selected the three High-Impact Entrepreneurs at its 44th International Selection Panel in London.
