After over a year with iProspect as head of business development, Abdullah Alkhury has joined the Columbus Agency as its new managing director in Malaysia.
The creator of Moobara has switched to another company within the Dentsu Aegis Network within a year of it acquiring Consider Digital in Malaysia. Last month Matthew Wong moved from iProspect to join Columbus Agency as well.
Abdullah describes himself as “an entrepreneur at heart” and believes that “we’re now living in an era of disruption, what we call the Idea Economy. Companies today can turn ideas into reality in a fraction of the time it took just five or 10 years ago. And it’s no secret that technology is fueling that speed.”
After graduating from the Ottawa University with a bachelor’s degree in Economics & Business Administration in 2008, Abdullah worked for the Hewlett-Packard Enterprise in customer support. In 2010, he moved to Jordan to lead sales at his family business for five years. In 2015, he moved to Malaysia for a short stint with Halal Tech Venture Builder before joining Consider Digital.
