A Pivotal Year for LebNet
As we enter 2026, LebNet stands at a defining point in its journey. What began as a volunteer driven network has evolved into a structured organization with proven programs, an expanding footprint, and a deeply engaged community. This evolution has laid the groundwork for what comes next.
With the steadfast support of our Board, LebNet has built the foundation required to scale responsibly and move from vision to execution.
2026 marks our transition into a true execution phase. Backed by seasoned leadership, expanded operational capacity, and a clear five year roadmap, we are focused on delivering impact at scale.
Flagship programs including mentorship, internships, job referrals, and the Tech Fellows program will grow in both reach and effectiveness. We will deepen community and member engagement, strengthening how our network connects, collaborates, and supports one another.
To accomplish that, we are evaluating new systems, including a community platform and mobile app, as part of our efforts to strengthen how we serve our members and scale meaningful connections.
This year is about translating years of trust, dedication, and collective belief into lasting outcomes. With focus, discipline, and partnership, LebNet is positioned to lead its next chapter with confidence.
Thank you for being part of this journey and for helping shape the future of the Lebanese tech ecosystem.
Together, we grow.
