Jordan Daily – In the records of personal and professional development , there are stories that stand out as exemplars of unwavering dedication and visionary leadership .Dr. Yacoub Nasereddin‘s life journey is one such narrative – a testament to the transformative power of education, resilience, and the pursuit of a higher purpose.

Nasereddin’s story begins with humble origins during his first university years. He toiled tirelessly, juggling his studies with simple jobs to ensure his educational pursuits and daily necessities. His resilience bore fruit, leading to his graduation in 1977. He embarked on his professional journey as an accountant, subsequently ascending the career ladder to become a supervisor in poultry and chicken farms, a sales manager, and eventually, the director of factories. His relentless pursuit of excellence culminated in senior management roles within a public joint-stock company.

However, it was in 1984 that Dr. Nasereddin’s path took a remarkable turn. He founded the “Yan” company, a venture whose name bears significance as it encapsulates the initials of his own name, his father’s, and his family’s. What began as a business venture soon expanded into medicines and medical supplies.

Dr. Nasereddin’s journey as an entrepreneur took a profound shift when he realized that the true value of his resources lay in the realm of education and scientific research. He recognized that investing in education at all levels and across diverse fields of scientific inquiry was the pathway to serving society and advancing the country toward its goals.

In 2005, he laid the foundation for the Middle East University in Amman, declaring “Knowledge is Power” as its guiding principle. The university became a beacon of education, not only for the local community but also for the Arab and global spheres.
