About Markaaz

Markaaz, founded by CEO Hany Fam, is the world’s first platform to verify and connect every small business on the planet and the network of partners that support them. By listening to small business owners and understanding the unique challenges they face, Markaaz reimagined what is possible with best-in-class technology, strategic partners and a world-class executive and advisory team, all dedicated to creating positive and sustainable impact for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). Markaaz provides every SMB with access, equality and empowerment through affordable resources and tools to run and grow their businesses.

The Markaaz Directory is an unrivaled resource of pre-verified SMBs that empowers business owners to save critical time and money to identify, connect, monitor and transact with verified suppliers and partners. The 100 million SMBs included in the Markaaz Directory, which will grow to more than 300 million this year, are verified with the most robust global standards, including Know Your Customer, Know Your Business, AML checks, identity verification, all permissioned data and more. Markaaz is the first solution to offer affordable, unlimited access to this information, providing unique insights that enable better business decisions regarding suppliers, buyers and partners.

The all-in-one Markaaz Dashboard is the control center through which all this is accessed. It integrates all the solutions SMBs need, such as marketing, accounting, supply chain, cybersecurity and more, allowing them to run their businesses from a single platform instead of the 20 or more point solutions most use today. The Markaaz Dashboard will offer resources that solve business or industry specific challenges, a user experience supported by a natural language AI interface and a recommendations engine to deliver a customized experience for every business.
