The Middle East is undergoing a profound digital transformation, driven by rapid advancements in
technology, increasing investment in innovation, and strategic national visions aimed at diversification
and economic resilience.

At the heart of this revolution are trailblazing women who are not only breaking barriers in the
traditionally male-dominated tech sector but also redefining what leadership and impact look like in the
digital age.

This list — 30 Women in Tech: Advancing the Middle East’s Digital Revolution — highlights some of
the region’s most influential and forward-thinking female leaders who are shaping the future of
technology and innovation.

These women stand out for their exceptional contributions across key pillars: Economic impact,
innovation, revenue generation, government collaboration, and scalability of their ventures.

Whether they are leading high-growth startups, steering multinational tech firms, founding AI and
fintech disruptors, or advising governments on digital policy, these leaders are actively contributing to
the digital economies of their respective countries and the region as a whole.

In terms of economic contribution, many of the women on this list have built tech enterprises that drive
significant job creation, attract venture capital, and integrate their platforms into national economies.

Several of them lead companies with multi-million-dollar revenues, while others have successfully
scaled from local operations to international markets. Their ventures often operate in high-impact sectors
such as artificial intelligence (AI), cybersecurity, fintech and e-commerce — sectors vital to the region’s
digital competitiveness.
