Fawaaz Abbas

I am a startup founder with a background in digital marketing, finance, and product development, focused on building practical products that help small businesses run more effectively. I operate with a strong commercial lens, think in systems, and prioritise execution and distribution alongside product quality. I am currently building Elixa, an AI agent marketplace and workspace designed to help one-person founders run their business with the leverage of a full team, without hiring.
