Presenting to Improve Your Presentations

Some of the hottest tech startups are coming from the Middle East

In order to stand out from the crowd, you need to present better than the crowd.

Silhouettes of three people in discussion in front of a background with currency notes grid lines and fluctuating financial graphs suggesting a business or financial meetingThere are some great ideas coming out of Dubai in the UAE, Riyadh in Saudi Arabia and many parts of India, but you don’t often think of Lebanon as a hotbed for EdTech start-ups. But top-flight international universities like the American University of Beirut are producing young entrepreneurs with world class ideas, talent, and drive.

I met Anis Assi at the 2017 World Finals of the Imagine Cup, a competition that gathers some of the best young minds on the planet. Anis’s project, BL!NK, uses technology to help students and professionals evaluate their own presentations. In an entrepreneurial world, the key to success is often in the presentation.

In the near future, when it comes to success, if you don’t BL!NK, you may miss it.
