Hi all,
We are glad as a company to see blogs like this, whose purpose and mission is to help build the industry and not just make money. The creative/ web/ advertising industry is extremely primitive and connot be compared even to regional standards (dubai, qatar,etc), let alone global. For this reason, Our company Mawaqaa, is trying extremely hard to make a difference in the local market by investing heavily on research and development, non traditional marketing such as online ads, newsletters, magazines, etc. and building awareness for the industry.
Im sure all of you web designers in Kuwait have faced this issue: An advertising company, whose promary focus is marketing, branding and collateral, will try and develop a website for a client “just to make an extra buck”. This is a popular trend in Kuwait and it must stop. We go by a very simple philosophy- Dont give a cook to do an engineer’s job, and vica versa.
Mawaqaa is a 100% web-only specialized company that focuses on developing enterprise web-based products and solutions in house. We are the first company in Kuwait to have its own in house developed Etrade platform(Mawaqaa etrade), certified and approved by Sun Microsystems. No other company in Kuwait has been able to do that before.
Besides enterprise solutions, we also offer medium sized business , industry specific product solutions such as news and marketing management online, advertising packages, and content management for workflow based businesses.
Yes, our prices are not cheap by any scale, but we are confident that no other company can offer a completely business driven web strategy in terms of long term planning, consultancy, search engine marketing ,content sharing and revenue generation. Our clients include leading banks, investment and financial institutions, real estate giants, holding groups and multinational industrial players among other industries.
If you’ve never heard of us, take a few moments to visit our corporate site at: www.mawaqaa.com and get more information.
I look forward to posting here more often and sharing views and trends taking place in the Kuwait web industry.
Regards,
Mawaqaa
