AYMAN HARIRI
Ayman is an ambitious, progressive investor with a passion for responsible technology. Spurred by his travels, cultural exchanges, and frustration with the traditional one-size-fits-all model of social media, Ayman aspired to create a social networking platform that protects user privacy and prioritizes genuine connection over engagement.
Ayman's vision led to the genesis of VERO, an ethical social network optimized for connection, not addiction.
