Know more about me
Hi! This is Amel Derragui
I am a global citizen raised across various cultures. Since the age of fourteen, I have been passionate about entrepreneurship and social impact.
After a corporate career in sales and advertising, I launched my portable business as a marketing consultant for global organizations, which allowed me to move from one country to another and gave me more freedom with my time.
A few years later, I decided to share what I learned along the way and the methodology I developed for growing a business that aligns with your needs. My proven framework has since helped hundreds of solopreneurs and small business owners around the world start, grow or scale their businesses.
I've spoken at international stages for various organizations like Forbes, the World Food Program, and the Ban Ki-Moon Foundation, covering marketing, entrepreneurship, women's empowerment, and social impact topics.
If you're looking to inspire for action and help your audience fulfill their potential, let's connect!
