A turning point came a year ago when I met Shafaat Hashmi at an event in Dubai where he inspired me from his keynote, sharing hard facts and giving Founders a practical approach towards building profitable businesses. With his sharp business insight, he asked fundamental questions about my travel app—its unique edge, its direction—and challenged me to move beyond creating yet another app. With his guidance, we embarked on a transformative journey together, involving complete rebranding, restructuring the business idea, building a sharp competitive edge and redefining our monetization model. Alongside his exceptional team, we redesigned the app, added innovative features, and developed a product that exceeded our user’s expectations.
