Origen was at the front at a recent cloud-powered event in Doha, Qatar, hosted by industry leaders Nutanix and Microsoft — and what a fantastic experience it was!
Centered around the theme
“Discover the Simplicity of Cloud with Nutanix & Microsoft Azure,”
the event brought together cloud experts, IT leaders, and innovators from across the region to explore how hybrid and multicloud solutions are transforming the way we work.
Origen in the Cloud Panel
One of the proudest moments for our team was seeing Ali Saeed, President & CEO of Origen, speak on a high-impact partner panel titled:
“Seamless & Secure: Accelerate Your Journey to Azure with Confidence.”
Alongside cloud experts from across the region — including:

Ali shared Origen’s on-ground experience working with enterprises that are navigating complex IT environments and looking to embrace Microsoft Azure confidently.
His message was simple but powerful: cloud doesn’t have to be complicated when you have the right people guiding the way.
