Taibah and Yousef H. AlDabbagh, two friends who studied at King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals (KFUPM). They set up eDesign immediately after graduating, starting with just one desk, one PC and one service – web design. From those beginnings, the company has grown and prospered. In 2008 they moved into new offices, where they are still located. Today the company consists of 38 people. The services eDesign offers range from the latest in website design (including advanced e-commerce websites) to mobile apps, videos, graphic design and all aspects of digital marketing, as well as complementary services such as copywriting and printing. #J-18808-Ljbffr
