Ahmed Sadeeq

I'm Ahmed, a passionate technology entrepreneur who's particularly interested about software innovation and the opportunities it can bring to the hospitality sector. Growing up, I was surrounded by my father's hospitality business, which gave me the opportunity to see first-hand the challenges faced by both hospitality operators and their customers. I've always had a passion for technology and naturally found myself looking at ways to use it to improve how things were done across my father's restaurants. My brother and I would come up with new ideas in the office above the restaurant, develop solutions and put them into practice, but what really fascinated me was seeing how people interacted with the systems I'd built in a real-world environment. Experiencing that connection between technology and its practical use sparked something in me. From that point onwards, I was hooked on experimenting with new concepts, solving problems and finding better ways of doing things, a passion that has ultimately shaped the journey I'm on today. Another area I feel strongly about is creating opportunities for young people and students. I believe that getting practical experience early in your career can make a huge difference, and I want to play a part in giving people that opportunity. Through OnePlusTwo, we offer student placements and opportunities to work alongside our team, gain hands-on experience and develop skills in software engineering, technology and business.
