Shehab El Nawawi

BIO

Shehab El Nawawi is the Chairman and Managing Director of Giza Systems, the leading systems integrator (SI) in Egypt and the Middle East. Shehab joined the company as Managing Director in late 2000 when it was on a downward spiral, and in 2004 he turned the company around. Since then he has tripled the company top line and quadrupled its market valuation. On his watch the company saw a comeback that catapulted it to be the leader of the SI pack in the region, with a footprint that now spans the Middle East, and with established and growing subsidiaries in KSA and Dubai, and soon in Doha, Qatar and Tripoli, Libya. With his team he built a strong and robust vertically focused and customer-centric organization that enabled the development of business in different industry segments; and oversaw the inception of a number of subsidiaries geared to penetrate key growth markets and further expand the company’s geographic footprint.
