My name is Tareq Qaimari,
I live in Ramallah.
I’m a Marketing student in QOU in my third year, and currently working in the online marketing field in three Palestinian startups.
My passion has always been to motivate people around me and to a role model for Palestinian youth.
I’ve received the opportunity to be a fellow in VIP.Fund through its’ social publishing program, and I couldn’t waste such an opportunity. Through in this amazing experience in this program, I was able to visit all marketing aspects from coming up with crazy ideas, to writing specific strategies, and I’ve also tested my leadership skills by leading the marketing team in the program. Through this program, I got introduced to amazing people that were brought up by VIP.Fund as guest speakers to help by telling us their success stories, and sharing some of the great experience they have. VIP.Fund is giving the students such a great opportunity by giving them a portal between learning from books and gaining experience from working in the fields that they like. All of this gave me the push to go out there, fulfil my dream and do my part in the community as a young man who wants grow, build, and help.

My name is Tamer Jaber. I live in Ramallah. I am a Computer Science/Business Administration fresh graduate from Birzeit University. I am passionate about Sociology, graphic design, social innovation and exploring new things which encouraged me during my college years to grab all available opportunities to improve myself. These opportunities allowed me to eventually become a VIP.fund fellow and to be enrolled in its social publishing program. Through this program I was able to improve my soft skills which I needed to improve compared to my technical skills. I also gained practical experience in fields of time management, team work, public speaking and launching campaign. In addition, I received knowledge in social publishing from highly experienced and international guest speakers. Now more than ever I feel empowered to invest my time and energy to bridge the gap between business and technology through civic engagement projects in order to improve the overall development of Palestine and the world.
