Ismet Trako has joined as the UX Lead within the digital experience department. With over a decade of experience in designing user experiences and interfaces, Ismet has collaborated with startups, agencies, and companies of all sizes.
In his new role, he will oversee the design and implementation of user-centric solutions, guiding the UX vision to deliver outstanding experiences for our nation-builder clients.
Ali Syed has come on board as Project Director. He brings over two decades of specialised experience in project delivery and has successfully led award-winning digital transformations for prominent brands across the MENA and APAC regions.
He will focus on efficiently executing projects and delivering high-quality solutions.
Create claims the new hires will play a crucial role in executing the recently announced multi-year contract with the Department of Culture and Tourism (DCT) Abu Dhabi, as well as other key clients such as the Royal Commission for AlUla (RCU) and Dubai Economy and Tourism (DET).
