In order to disrupt an industry, it takes a certain kind of mindset, and for business leaders like Amer Safaee, you have to stand apart from the crowd.
As an investor and business owner, Amer Safaee has disrupted the tech industry for the last several years, growing the global operations of his business, Bama Security Group, to 5 countries including Turkey, the UAE, the UK, Germany and Tajikistan.
Starting from humble beginnings, and raised in Afghanistan, Safaee set out from an early age to show what he could achieve. And because of his determination and coming from a poor background, for Safaee, it was essential for him to build the life that others in his community could only dream of.
Currently CEO and Founder of Bama Security Group, Safaee works with major brands and customers around the world, helping them with their IT infrastructure and data security needs. From network architecture to the cloud, Safaee has developed quality solutions that offer companies market leading protection in a world where cybersecurity and data theft is at an all-time high.
“Most businesses need what we have to offer and they cannot function without the necessary security protocols in place,” said Safaee.
A strong advocator of a work-life balance, Safaee encourages people not to give up, and to strive for greater goals. Having disrupted the tech space by providing a unique blend of services, Safaee has managed to create a one-of-a-kind reputation in the industry, working with suppliers and trusted business networks to forge partnerships and alliances. Whether its data gathering, competitor analysis or marketing, Safaee has built a team of likeminded individuals around him that have a desire to stand out, even when the odds are stacked against them.
Having traveled internationally, and regularly visiting Dubai, London and Istanbul, Safaee has a cultural connection to the clients he works with. Being a strong negotiator has led him to succeed where others have failed, but also cultivating relationships has allowed him to excel, not just in business, but in his personal life as well.
On setting goals for his company, Safaee said in a recent interview, “My next target is to have my technology business in 50 countries worldwide by 2025.”
