Bio
Kishen Mangat
Ahmed and I worked together closely in a multi-stakeholder team on a pioneering converged policy control solution in Saudi Arabia. This effort resulted in the world's first ever prayer time application, which provides parental control options on broadband access during namaz prayer times. We also jointly presented this solution at industry conferences in the middle east region. Ahmed is an exceptional collaborator who brings energy and open communications to solving problems in order to achieve shared objectives.
