Abdullah Snobar

Honoured, humbled and excited to announce the DMZ’s new Advisory Council. Canada is filled with amazing individuals and finding the best was no easy task. With both a league of success behind them and innovation on their mind, I can safely say that we chose the brightest 19 individuals Canadian entrepreneurship and business has to offer.
