Marhaba! I’m Walaa Hamdan

I created Node to help founders better understand the investment journey and build stronger, more fundable companies.

I work directly with founders across Oman and the region on investment readiness, strategy, and growth. This newsletter is my way of sharing practical perspective shaped by that work.

For founders, operators, and ecosystem builders looking in Oman for practical insight and grounded perspective on the journey.
