Amine Neeme

I was born and raised in Lebanon. My Life choices and career can be summarized as 1 step forward half a step back:
I grew up convinced I wanted to be a lawyer, got into college to study law (1 step forward)... then I realized I didn't like it so I changed majors to Finance 1 year in (half a step back).
I worked in Risk Management for a year and discovered I loved finance but I wanted to be external facing and I wanted to move abroad.
Masters in international business in Grenoble, internship in Paris.
I went to a Google event for Arab speakers there and discovered you could be a non-engineer and work in tech (this was 2013 and Tech wasn't AS big in EMEA yet).
1 year later got int Google Dublin working in Ads Sales for the Middle East and North African market. I met my wife in Ireland. (she's also a "techie" working at Microsoft)
Then made the move to Zurich where I now work on Product Partnerships (AI & Data Partnerships).
