Top SchoolMohammed Almeshekah is a founder, investor and cybersecurity engineer with 13 years of experience building and scaling security-first products and policy initiatives across the US and MENA. He founded and exited Trusted Security after growing it to multimillion-dollar revenue, then launched Outliers Venture Capital to back ambitious founders across both regions.

A Kauffman Fellow and former deputy minister-level advisor, he blends startup execution, enterprise-grade security design and ecosystem development—often focusing on the human factors of cybersecurity that informed his startup exit and ongoing board work.
