Founder of Divalos
Entrepreneur · Author · Artist
Nagehan Karaman is the founder of Divalos, a Dubai-based growth company working with businesses across growth strategy, performance marketing, creative, partnerships and international expansion. Before Divalos, she founded and built UpTeam, which expanded internationally and became part of the foundation for Divalos.
Alongside her work in business, Nagehan Karaman is a published author and multidisciplinary artist. She is also the founder of House of Fragma, her visual art practice.
Approach
Nagehan works at the point where strategy has to survive contact with execution. Her approach starts with the commercial question — which customer, which offer, which channel, at what cost — and only then moves to campaigns, creative and reporting.
That is why Divalos was built as one connected team instead of a set of channel services. Her work spans Turkey, Dubai and international markets, in Turkish and English.
Before Divalos
