Meet The Visionary From Kuwait

Mohammed Sh. Al Rashidi graduated as a computer engineer at an interesting time. The year 2000 was practically here, and technologists wherever were running franticly attempting to settle the Y2K. At last, we checked that case as well.

For a young man like Mohammed, all these were pretty interesting. It spurred in him a passion for technological disruption.

During the early 2000s, Kuwait realized the need to have a digital transformation across all verticals. There were talks of FinTech adoption and disruption across all sectors. Today, Kuwait is one of the fourth-best destinations for FinTech in the GCC. Digitalization is happening quickly across all sectors. The change was first seen when visionaries like Mohammed started One Global (Og) back in 2004.

Focusing on Telecom, mContent, mHealth, mTourism, mEducation, mGovernment, FinTech, and incubation, Og covered all aspects of becoming the best platform for sustainable future growth.

Mohammed ventured to the far corners of the earth to comprehend how he can sling this vision of digitalization across all areas. One of his journeys even ended in him getting a patent in FinTech from the US and other countries for performing card transactions on the cloud.

He was one of the first in the country to introduce Blockchain, cryptocurrency, Ultrasonic, IoT, ML, DL, and AI to the workplace. Og educated many of their businesses on how to go digital. They were now serving over 3.2 million customers across 20 countries.

Today, Og is one of the safest digital service payments provider. It is also one of the most user-friendly service providers. They have set a benchmark in providing a digital lifestyle in the country. However, they are on the quest to become the best, not just in Kuwait, but in the whole digital ecosystem.

During the pandemic, the company saw exponential growth as more people realized the need to go digital. Acting as a one-stop destination for all digital financial services, users quickly adopted Og Money. They perceived how protected and simple it was, contrasted with a few different applications they have utilized before.

The future looks dazzling for the company, especially under the guidance of a visionary like Mohammed.

Mohammed is in our book of 20 Most Influential Business Icons 2022. We feel he is a visionary that you should find out about. Learn how he is disrupting an age-old business and uniting the world from Kuwait. Book will be available soon across the planet.
