Islam Hatem
CEO
I am a dreamer; have been setting my objectives in life and work since I was 18 years old, and I’ve managed to achieve them until now. I traveled throughout Africa, Asia, and Europe for work and holidays. The key thing I learned besides the work experience is building relationships with people. This is the real investment. My objectives became more appealing and challenging since I became a father to a beautiful daughter, and I'm willing to achieve much more. I consider Grafene Consulting as my second daughter since they were both born in the same year. I see them growing every passing year, and I am very proud of both of them.

Ahmed Ismail
Head of Network
Grafene gave me the opportunity to work on a better version of myself, and to look at my life from a 360⁰ approach. I now delve into the human sciences, such as sociology and psychology; explore new experiences and adventures such as riding motorcycles; reconnect with old friends; actively rediscover my sort of personal jukebox, where I revisit my playlists of songs that are linked with cherished memories. As for Grafene, it’s the crown jewel of our commitment to pass on the knowledge and values extended to us—by the industry’s mentors and leaders—to future generations. We are leveraging the current global opportunities by weaving in Grafene as an integral ingredient in the international network, focused on decentralizing technology consultancy and helping close existing gaps.
Sameh Hussein
Technology Talents Head
I am a people person who appreciates the richness and passion of each individual. I find it intriguing to explore the potential of people around me. Hence, I'm blessed in seeing the good in each person I meet. That's my greatest strength that has been allowing me to build the technology talents in Grafene Consulting. My greatest joy is mining for the right talent for our clients, yet, my goal is to have a significant role in closing the current global talent gap by exploring and grooming our future youth talent. Personally, I have decided to learn and experience something new each year, my latest adventure was scuba diving where I found peace of mind underwater.
Tamer Shaker
Technology Solutions Head
I am a very ambitious person in both my work and personal life. I like to travel, I've visited most of the continents and tried many different things during my adventures. I am married with three lovely children. On the professional front, I have more than 20 years of experience in Information Technology, during which I developed valuable experience in software development and implementation projects throughout the Middle East. I have always wanted to start my own practice and, thus, I'm very grateful for this opportunity to develop this business alongside my friends and coworkers, passing my knowledge and experience to people who are looking to start in this field.
