Abdul Qadir

My name is Abdul Qadir and I’ve been living and breathing all things digital since 2003, at times (some might say sadly) I even dream about digital marketing and new ways to improve and enhance the experience and profitability of business owners.

I love spreading my knowledge and educating and helping small and medium-sized businesses in how they can embrace and benefit from the power of the internet and I enjoy contributing to their growth and success.

I’m the kind of person who tends to shun the spotlight, I like to work behind the scenes, and I’m not the kind of guy who feels comfortable blowing my own trumpet – maybe that’s not a good thing, or then again.

Over the past 13 years, I’ve observed success and failure of people across the digital and online marketing world and have concluded that online marketing takes a lot of sustained effort, trial and error, detailed learning and patience. I’m convinced if you’re prepared to put in the effort then the fruits available from Online Marketing are abundant and sufficient for everyone.

Currently, I'm the Group VP Marketing and Growth for Disrupt.com. Before that I worked with Rocket Internet as the Global Head of Marketing (CMO) for one of it's venture in Asia. Earlier I spent around 8 years working for multiple agencies and corporates in Dubai and around Middle East.
