Hussam Hammo graduated from Princess Sumaya University for Technology with a degree in Computer Science.  One year later, Hussam co-founded the first Arabic-language social network called faye3.com which was aquired by Maktoob.com, the largest Arabic web portal. Hussam quit his job at Maktoob in 2009 and founded Wizards Production, a web browser-based games platform tailored to the Arab user. Soon after the trends in games shifted to mobile games, Hussam founded Tamatem. After being the first Arab to enroll in the Silicon Valley accelerator program, 500 StartUps, he was able to raise an investment of $ 1.2M from several investors in the US. Hussam is currently the CEO & Founder of Tamatem Games, the leading mobile games publisher in the MENA region. Tamatem has a total of 40 games with more than 45M downloads.
