				<h2>Khaled Hassounah</h2>
				<h3 class="position">Director for Middle East and Africa</h3>
			
				<p>Khaled Hassounah's experience has been primarily focused on establishing large-scale, distributed organizations spanning the United States, India, the Middle East, and China. Most recently, he was a founding member of IMlogic, an enterprise instant messaging company which was acquired by Symantec in early 2006. Hassounah was raised in Jordan and holds a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from the University of Jordan. He is interested in technology solutions for education in developing countries: he assists in establishing the needed relationships with government officials and NGOs, and stimulating the spread of information to the general public about the project and its goals. He also engages with the open source community and content providers, focusing on the benefit of maximizing their contribution to the project and its success. Hassounah also helps with content creation and sharing, instant messaging communication, and other deployment infrastructure.</p>
