As  co-founder of Nakhweh.com I arrived to the United States on the 9th of April to participate in the International Visitor Leadership Program by the Department of the State under the title of “Volunteerism: United We Serve” with 104 people from more than 80 different countries.

Things I have learned as a “little” business owner!

Filed under: Life — Tags: , , , , — Kamel Al-Asmar @ 10:43 pm

It has been seven months now since I co-founded my first venture Ideation Box on June 2009, before going through the launch of Nakhweh.com, passing by the Ideation Labs and finally the process of establishing a new Multimedia and Animation House, Sketchat Creations!
