Hi, I'm Ahmed 👋🏽
AI/Web3 Ecosystem Growth & Partnerships Operator.
I help emerging technology companies turn ecosystems into measurable adoption: builders, partners, GTM programs, and user growth across Core DAO, BNB Chain, Huawei, and Gameloft.
Growth operator for
AI/Web3 ecosystems
I'm a business development and ecosystem growth operator focused on the bridge between AI, Web3, gaming, and emerging technology platforms.
My strongest proof comes from scaling blockchain ecosystems: onboarding 96+ dApps and partners at Core DAO, building partner pipelines at BNB Chain, and helping global platforms turn developer and user demand into repeatable growth.
Now I am focused on applying that ecosystem-building experience to AI and AI/Web3 companies: partnerships, builder programs, GTM motions, community activation, and commercial growth.
