Hosam Arab is a known name in the UAE’s entrepreneurial space. He cofounded online fashion retailer Namshi in 2011, and following its strong growth, was fully acquired by retail giant Emaar Malls in 2019 – the same year that Arab stepped down as its CEO. He then founded the buy-now-pay-later platform Tabby in 2019. The fintech startup announced in December that it had raised $23m in a Series A funding round to fuel the company’s next stage of growth and scale its capabilities. The investment came following a $7m round in June 2020, which Arab said will be used to launch and expand the startup in the Saudi Arabian market.
Hosam Arab has been a member of the Advisory Board of the Dubai Chamber for Digital Economy since June 30, 2021.
Worked as an assistant at "Waha Capital" between 2010 and 2011, and a project engineer at "General Electric" between 2005 and 2007, and a field engineer at "Schlumberger Company" between 2002 and 2003.
He holds a Master of Business Administration in 2009 from Harvard Business School, and a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering in 2002 from Queen's University in Canada.
