In a bustling city, Fadwa’s life took an unexpected twist when her identity card disappeared into thin air. What followed was a comical whirlwind of government office odysseys, endless forms, and the discovery that bureaucracy had a wicked sense of humor.
As Fadwa navigated this maze, a brilliant idea struck – “Why not create a company to make life easier for folks like me?” And thus, “One37” was born, dedicated to turning identity management into a breezy adventure.
One37 made identity management private, secure, and reusable. No more lost cards, no more red tape. Losing an identity card became a mere hiccup, not a horror story.
Fadwa’s journey from the absurdity of a vanished card to founding One37 was like a quirky comedy, proving that humor and innovation could indeed change the world, one step at a time.
