Back when Loop’s founder (Wasim Abu Salem) was at the age of 13, he really wanted to learn about technology and business. He has dreamt of building his future technological startup aspiring to achieve great success. Wasim did not find the required environment and business support to build his skill set. Therefore, he concluded that he has to create a solution for the next generations that will most likely look for similar support. In his teenage years, he’d always think about providing an alternative school system that is not old-fashioned, but a more modern one. Therefore, with his passion for business, technology, and the understanding of the need for a change to the education system, he began his long process, with design and careful thinking towards his initiative, which eventually became Loop in 2015; an impact-driven technological organization that is built to last (Watch the story behind Loop).

Our Name & Logo

​The word Loop means repeating the same action multiple times. Since we all mentor our peers, we all learn from each other and we all aim to benefit from this system, the Loop logo gets a strong meaning where we teach, learn, and benefit. The mentorship aspect of Loop promotes the idea of a lifelong journey and an ongoing system in which participants later can become mentors for the following generations, contribute to the community and even become Loop partners, thereby completing the loop of knowledge.
