BEIRUT, LEBANON, April 17, 2020 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Amid a difficult and challenging time, Lebanon proves once more that it has the potential to rise again considering its promising technology sector and local creative talents.

A global English publication, “CEO Today Magazine”, announced that Hisham Itani, Chairman and CEO of Resource Group, a technology investment group based in Beirut, was recognized at the CEO Today Middle East Awards 2020 for his achievements in the Technology sector in the Middle East.

Through its subsidiaries, Resource Group, works on several projects supporting governments, financial institutions, telecom operators and corporations through digital software solutions and services. The company aims to foster innovative technological solutions in line with digital transformation in Lebanon and the region. Hence, it relies on its talented local team of experts to deliver world-class solutions with the highest international standards.

Hisham Itani asserted his strong belief in Lebanon following the announcement. He said: “This win goes to our dedicated team at Resource Group but also to all the Lebanese. I strongly believe that we have the potential to develop solutions that address societal challenges and support society’s progress. More so today, the social transformation that is resulting from the spread of Covid-19 along with the difficult economic situation in Lebanon and around the world, push our limits to examine more opportunities that could support our country and benefit our citizens.”

He added: “Lebanon has always had a thriving technology sector given its highly educated and talented people who have considerable potential and are at the core of all the technological advancements that the country has witnessed in the last few years.”

Itani also thanked CEO Today for their continuous efforts to highlight success stories around the world but also in the Middle East; a region that is constantly showing resilience and is making tremendous leaps in terms of innovations.
