We have met several years ago for the first time in government sector of Morocco. Youssef worked with me on delivering important projects in the area of WebSphere Portal and surrounding applications. Always fully professional and patient. Deeply engaged in local market did mentor me through country specifics. Always willing to learn new technologies. Youssef unique capability was to listen and understand both customer requirements as well as consultant actually performing the job. Over time he proven to be technology driven leader and great friend. Youssef does have my full trust in any area.
