Maqsam: Transforming Communication and Shaping Policy for Entrepreneurial Growth in MENA
GEM (Global Entrepreneurship Monitor) profiled Maqsam co-founders Fouad Jeryes (Co-Founder & President) and Sinan Taifour (CEO & Co-Founder) on how the company delivers localized voice, WhatsApp, and CRM-integrated communications for MENA, powered by an in-house Arabic LLM trained on millions of real conversations, enabling real-time transcription, analytics, and its flagship Arabic-speaking AI agent.
The founders envision democratizing enterprise-grade customer service for even the smallest businesses, while also using the platform to call for clearer regional policy support, citing regulatory fragmentation, limited funding access, and a lack of dedicated programs for startups scaling past the ideation stage as key barriers to MENA's entrepreneurial growth.
