Omar Hamoui

Who is Omar Hamoui?

Omar is an entrepreneur with deep roots in the mobile industry.

After earning a degree in Computer Science at UCLA, Omar founded and ran

several companies in mobile software and services. At the time, he was

frustrated by the lack of available options when it came to promoting

and monetizing mobile products. Omar realized that mobile service and

content firms needed better ways to advertise and make money on the

mobile Web. While earning his MBA at the Wharton School, Omar began to

think more seriously about the untapped potential of mobile advertising,

and created AdMob to address this growing opportunity. Today, Omar has

taken a leave from Wharton to focus on AdMob, and is now running one of

the fastest growing and most innovative companies in the mobile world.
