THE PROFESSIONAL JOURNEY

How the story unfolds.

Building Astra Tech’s regional presence

Astra Tech’s May 2024 announcement identifies Abdallah Abu-Sheikh as its founder and describes his role in a planned expansion into Dubai’s DIFC Innovation Hub. The agreement accompanied the company’s development of Botim and financial services.
