About me

I am Osama Sami Omar Elghwili, a 27-year-old entrepreneur and technology professional based in Libya. My work sits at the intersection of hands-on hardware engineering and strategic business development, driven by a commitment to fostering local technological self-reliance. My primary professional identity is as the Main Founder of Portable Engineer, a firm dedicated to technical support and smart city solutions. Recently, I have also ventured into high-level manufacturing as the founder of Computer Co, where I am pioneering the local production of computer motherboards—including my own "Mereem Mark 1" model—utilizing advanced SMT production lines. I balance these professional pursuits with my academic journey as an undergraduate student at the University of the People, where I am studying computer science. My expertise spans a wide range of technical domains, from enterprise-level hardware maintenance and cybersecurity methodologies to the application of AI in business automation and content creation. Beyond my technical projects, I am an active contributor to the Libyan technology landscape, serving as a speaker at events like the National Technology Day in Zintan and collaborating with organizations like Huawei to bring global expertise to our local manufacturing initiatives. Whether I am collaborating with my partner Furqan Mustafa, working on media projects with Moftah Alhameel, or documenting technology trends as an influencer, I am constantly pushing to evolve our regional industry.
