Entrepreneur in Residence · PSUT
Build your startup with an Entrepreneur in Residence, while you're still at university.
I'm Sari Awwad, Entrepreneur in Residence at Princess Sumaya University for Technology, the only university in Jordan with an EIR program. If you're a PSUT student with an idea, or just the drive to build something of your own, this is where you start.
They spend money on untested ideas and make mistakes someone could have warned them about in one conversation. Not because they aren't smart, but because they're doing it alone. You don't have to.
I bring over 20 years of building businesses, the wins and the expensive lessons, and squeeze them into focused sessions built around your idea.
Know what to do next, and what to ignore.
Test before you spend.
Build, instead of second guess.
What we work on
Whether your idea solves a real problem, who your customer is, how you'll make money, and how to tell the world about it.
Most importantly, we work on how you think and act as a founder, the part most people skip.

About me
Twenty years ago, I was a university student with an idea, little money, and no experience. I launched anyway and made almost every mistake possible.
Since then, I've built businesses in Sydney and Amman, written a book, and spoken on the TEDx stage. Now I help students skip the twenty years.

On campus at PSUT.
Do I need a business plan?
No. Bring your idea, even if it is rough.
