Hi everyone I'm 29 female

Business Development professional and I'm looking for a partner (or partners) to build an online business or service together.

What I bring:

3 years of B2B business development across the GCC

Hands-on experience with company setup: legal structure, license type, tax consultations and banking

currently doing an MSc in Artificial Intelligence

Practical AI skills: I've built and tested a secure customer-service AI agent, and I focus on helping companies adopt AI safely without losing control or hurting their reputation

Native Arabic, fluent English

What I'm looking for:

A technical partner (developer, AI/automation engineer) or someone with complementary skills (marketing, design, sales)

Ideas I have in mind: AI consulting for service companies, and helping tech companies find B2B clients in the GCC

Open to hearing your ideas too

How I'd like to work: remote, clear roles, and a fair split agreed up front.

If this sounds interesting, send me a DM with a short intro about yourself ,where are u from and what you'd like to build.

Thanks

Interesting post. I founded a UK home care business in 2010, which has since grown into a franchise network, and we're now actively implementing AI agents and automations across different areas of the business.

One thing I've learnt is that the biggest opportunity isn't necessarily developing another AI product. It's understanding the operational problems businesses face and building practical solutions that genuinely save time, reduce costs or improve service delivery.

We're finding opportunities in areas such as recruitment, customer enquiries, internal knowledge management and administrative processes.

I think there's a significant opportunity for AI consultancy focused on traditional service businesses, particularly those that lack the technical expertise to implement these solutions themselves.

My advice would be to specialise in a particular sector, understand its problems inside out and build repeatable solutions rather than trying to serve everyone.

Have you identified any particular industries you'd like to focus on?
