Title: Mo Salah: Why the Middle East Needs Builders, Not consultants

In this unfiltered episode, Mo Salah (no, not the footballer) breaks down exactly why that’s a problem—and what we need to fix it.

From working with Techstars, Seedstars, and Startup Grind to founding Pitlane Ventures and Founders Paddock, Mo’s spent a decade inside accelerators across the region. He’s seen what works, what doesn’t, and why Silicon Valley’s model still matters.

💥 Why the region lacks a true builder culture

💥 What a “real” startup ecosystem needs (hint: not McKinsey)

💥 The 4 things every founding team must have before Day 1

💥 Why you probably shouldn’t start a company in your 20s

💥 The Middle East’s most promising startups right now (Tabby, Gameball, Instabug)
