// ai scene
Oasis Ventures III ($20M+), GenAI hackathons through Oasis500 and Luminus, and a fintech ecosystem that adopts AI faster than most. Strong MENA-regional focus.
// local signals
What's happening in Amman.
Amman is quietly one of MENA's best exporter cities for senior design and engineering talent. Oasis500 has backed 193 startups that have raised $135M+, and the Zain Innovation Campus (ZINC) plus the MENA fintech cluster keep the product pipeline full. Well-suited to fractional work because the talent market is used to it.
// ux community
Long-standing MENA-serving design scene — Jordanian designers work across GCC and Europe routinely. Pragmatic, product-focused, not trend-chasing.
// fractional
Remote-first freelance is the norm. Jordanian designers and engineers routinely contract directly with US / EU / GCC clients, so the advisory + fractional model is native here.
// how I help
Two offers.
// good fit
