Self-Identity & Authenticity Ghassan Aouad post on Nostalgia and Loyalty made me reflect on what shapes my identity. 𝐈 𝐚𝐦 𝐑𝐮𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐚𝐧—𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐲 𝐬𝐨. :) And I have never tried to mimic another culture, 𝐧𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐈 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐫 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐝—𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐧 𝐑𝐮𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐚, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐔𝐒𝐀, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐫𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐆𝐮𝐥𝐟, 𝐨𝐫 𝐒𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐳𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝. 𝐀𝐮𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐦𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧. At the same time, my professional journey has shaped me just as much. 𝐧𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐈 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐫 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐝—𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐧 𝐑𝐮𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐚, 𝐀𝐭 𝐀𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐔.𝐒., 𝐈 𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐝𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐈𝐓 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, sharpening my ability to analyze and implement high-tech solutions. Later, 𝐚𝐭 𝐑𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐜, 𝐈 𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐄𝐒𝐆-𝐃𝐞𝐞𝐩𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐚 𝐠𝐥𝐨𝐛𝐚𝐥 𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐞, 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐬 𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 that drive technological progress. My network is just as diverse. Over the years, 𝐈’𝐯𝐞 𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐬 𝐑𝐮𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐚, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐆𝐂𝐂, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐔.𝐒., 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐄𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞, 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐨𝐩 𝐞𝐱𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐬, 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬. The depth of these relationships is the result of years of working at the highest level or top-notch education—like Moscow State University, whose alumni have shaped history in physics, biology, and IT across the world, or Business School Lausanne, where I am proud to be a fellow alum of a former 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐳𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝 who also led the United Nations General Assembly.

Through Rahim Invest 🇨🇭 رحيم للاستثمار work closely with family offices, sovereign investors, and leading business figures in Abu Dhabi, Riyadh, Doha, and Dubai, structuring ESG-DeepTech deals that align with the region’s ambitious vision. Here, investment is not just about returns—it’s about transformation, impact, and legacy. My conversations aren’t theoretical; they lead to action, whether it’s securing strategic partnerships, scouting high-tech ventures from the EU and U.S., or aligning investors with breakthrough innovations. These experiences, connections, and cultural influences are not just part of my professional life—they are part of me. My identity isn’t about blending in; it’s about standing firm in who I am while embracing the people, opportunities, and places that continuously shape my journey. What about you? How do your roots and global experiences shape the way you do business?

This evening in Geneva was a beautiful reminder of how meaningful conversations and warm company make these moments unforgettable. Surrounded by friends who bring inspiration, wisdom, and laughter, I was fully immersed in the essence of Ramadan. From heartfelt discussions to shared traditions, it was a gathering that reminded me of the power of connection and the joy of celebrating this special month together. Grateful for evenings like these to Manal Aboujtila Alia Fares and Suad 🫶

Here is a glimpse into our work meeting today:

I had the privilege of participating in a heartfelt 2.5-hour webinar of PHENOMENAL WOMEN GLOBAL alongside four inspiring businesswomen and philanthropists from Switzerland, the USA, and Africa. Together with Liza Brenda Sekaggya Gita Osei-Bonsu Ambriel Pouncy Lydiah Kemunto Bosire, DPhil Valérie Neim Anila Hussain we dove into the theme "Funding the Future: Women Leaders Making a Difference," a conversation that truly touched on the importance and potential of women's leadership in creating impactful change. To give you a glimpse of our discussion, here’s a brief excerpt from my speech. If this resonates with you, I warmly invite you to watch the full video and join us in this important dialogue.

𝐓𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧 𝐖𝐡𝐨 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 March 8th #InternationalWomensDay is a day to pause, reflect, and celebrate the women who inspire us—not just through their achievements but through their everyday strength, wisdom, and grace. Because I’m in sustainable and deep-tech investment, I also see a lot of smart and brave deep-tech female entrepreneurs, scientists, and impact investors. Women who push the boundaries of what’s possible, challenge industries, and bring groundbreaking innovations to life. Their work doesn’t just shape the future—it ensures that future is more sustainable, ethical, and inclusive. In the world of investments, I’ve had the privilege of meeting and working alongside remarkable women who navigate challenges with resilience, break barriers with quiet determination, and lift others as they climb. Their success isn’t just measured in numbers or deals closed but in the way they create space for others, build trust, and shape industries with vision and integrity. Today is a reminder of the power we hold—not just individually, but together. Meaningful connections, shared ambitions, and the courage to support one another make all the difference. To the women I’ve met, worked with, and learned from—you are seen, you are valued, and the world is better because of you. 𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧’𝐬 𝐃𝐚𝐲!

𝐁𝐢𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐡: 𝐀 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐅𝐞𝐰, 𝐀 𝐅𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐲 #Biotech is not just another industry—it’s a high-stakes game that only a handful of countries can afford to play.

But the #GCC is making bold moves to join this elite club. That’s why my visit to Khalifa University (KU) was particularly exciting. It’s the most prestigious fundamental science university in the GCC, proving that biotech isn’t just for legacy players. I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Abdulrahim Sajini a world-trained 𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐦 𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐥 & 𝐑𝐍𝐀 𝐛𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐬𝐭 leading groundbreaking research in human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs), RNA modifications, and Emirati-specific metabolic disorders. His lab created the UAE’s first-ever Emirati hiPSCs, named UAE001, laying the foundation for precision medicine tailored to the region. With 5.3𝐌 𝐀𝐄𝐃+ 𝐢𝐧 𝐟𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐝, and expertise sharpened at 𝐂𝐚𝐦𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐠𝐞 𝐉𝐮𝐝𝐠𝐞 𝐁𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥, Dr. Sajini is bridging science and commercialization—a rare but crucial combination in biotech. Biotech is expensive, complex, and high-risk. But for 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐢𝐭, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝: 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐞𝐫 𝐩𝐨𝐩𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬, 𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐜 𝐝𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐦𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐞. The GCC is moving in the right direction, and I’m excited to see what’s next.

𝐅𝐮𝐥𝐥 𝐂𝐢𝐫𝐜𝐥𝐞: 𝐅𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐒𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐳𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐀𝐫𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐜 𝐆𝐮𝐥𝐟 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐁𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐀𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧 Last night’s networking aperitif organized by the Rue de Bourg & Saint-François association, felt like a perfect closing of a circle. Exactly a month ago, I spent my last evening in #Lausanne at the same gathering before heading to the #ArabicGulf for business. And yesterday, on the very day of this Apéro réseautage, I returned home—welcomed by the same familiar faces, the same warm energy. It felt symbolic, as if Lausanne itself was marking my return. There’s something special about a community where conversations flow effortlessly, where local entrepreneurs come together not just to exchange news but to share a sense of belonging. The laughter, the hugs, and the simple joy of being among people who make this city feel like home were a beautiful reminder of why I cherish these moments.
