Overcoming Challenges In The Arab Region: Hanan Saab, Founder of Pharmamed [Wamda TV]

Maya Rahal •

At the MENA Business Women Network Forum held in April in Dubai, Hanan Saab, founding member and current President at the Lebanese League For Women in Business (LLWB), explains how the league works towards enabling Arab women in the region and empowering them to start their own businesses. Saab talks about the importance of motivation and mentorship for encouraging Arab women to go into the business world, and highlights success stories as an inspiration.

Saab also shares many of the challenges she overcame when launching and running her own startup, Pharmamed, including a lack of support from her peers and society, yet she reveals how she managed to develop it into the successful medical company it is today.
