With his sights to the future and his roots in the time-honoured values of his people, Fouad Rahme turned to entrepreneurship aiming to contribute to the Lebanese economy through equity financing and capital growth with a focus on SMEs and family businesses, the backbone of the country. “We have to create jobs, create the means for Lebanese companies to become competitive,” Fouad says. “I will work hard for this cause. There is no plan B.”
