Suliman Makkawi began working with software in 2011, treating it not as a technical skill alone but as a way to turn ideas into real products. His interest traces back to early years spent taking devices apart to understand how they worked and rebuilding them - a practical habit of understanding a problem, breaking it down, testing a solution, then improving it.

Although his formal education was in aeronautical engineering and aircraft maintenance, his interest led him to digital product development. Early work included building a social networking platform and robot prototypes tested in practice - experiences that shaped a core conviction: a technical idea is not successful because it can be built, but because it reaches people and solves a real problem.

Career path

2011
The start: PS Suliman Makkawi
Began as an independent practice in programming and web development, at a time when much of the technology was still early in the region.
2011
Code Stor platform
A digital store and platform built on algorithms relatively advanced for its time - the project that proved a programming idea could become a working system.
2011
Samnet founded
The independent practice grew into a company bringing programming, platform development and digital marketing under one roof.
Later
Social platform and robotics prototypes
Built a social networking platform and more than one robot prototype, tested successfully in practice.
Today
Expanding into AI and IoT
Leads Samnet from delivering services towards building products and platforms, with growing focus on automation, AI and IoT.

Working philosophy

Technology creates value when it becomes a means to solve a problem, improve a process, or help a business grow. His projects therefore combine the idea, the technology, market understanding, user experience, automation and data - and he holds that a modern developer's role does not end at writing code, but extends to understanding the business and the problem the system is meant to solve.

Technology should not be a goal in itself. The real goal is to turn technology into genuine value for people and for business - to turn an idea into a working system, the system into a product, and the product into a venture that can grow.
