​

Mo Hamouda, CEO and founder of Momentum Worldwide, has built his career on a foundation of meaningful relationships, exceptional client value, and transformative solutions. With an impressive track record that spans over two decades, Mo is the embodiment of a leader who doesn’t just adapt to change—he propels it. His company, founded in 2022, operates from Toronto and New York, delivering innovative technology solutions to businesses, nonprofits, and educational institutions. Under his leadership, Momentum Worldwide lives by its mantra: “Lead with speed and finish with flawless execution.”

​

For Mo, the seeds of entrepreneurship were sown during his 11-year tenure in the tech industry, where he interacted with thousands of customers every month. One recurring theme in those conversations was the lack of services tailored for small and medium-sized businesses struggling to harness the full potential of technology. “There was a huge gap,” he recalls. “I was finishing my MBA and one of the first lessons for a successful business is there must be a need, a problem, and a solution. A light bulb clicked in my head that said, “It’s time.”

​

With a wealth of expertise in Salesforce technology, cloud computing, and people management, Mo launched Momentum Worldwide to bridge that gap. In just two years, his company has made an indelible mark, not only by streamlining client operations, but also by fostering a culture of personal and professional growth among its employees.

​

Momentum Worldwide’s innovative approach has proven transformative. For one client, they reduced the time needed to generate quotes from four days to just one, while boosting their close rate from 10% to 32%. These achievements are emblematic of Mo’s belief that speed is the new currency. “Our goal is to enable our customers to be self-sufficient and not need us anymore,” he says. “Nothing makes us happier than seeing our customers succeed.”

​

Mo’s personal journey is as remarkable as the company he leads. Starting at the age of 14 in sales, he climbed the ranks to become director of sales at Salesforce, earning accolades such as Best Manager of the Year (2019) and Top Performing Manager (2021, 2022). Alongside his corporate achievements, Mo has been a dedicated board member and volunteer with nonprofits for over a decade, focusing on workforce development.

​

What Mo enjoys most about his work is the collaborative problem-solving process. “When our customers come to us and say, ‘We have a problem with ABC,’ and we work together to solve it—that’s the best part. Equally rewarding is seeing our employees grow by learning new technologies and tackling challenges.”

​

Armed with a bComm and an MBA, Mo Hamouda continues to steer Momentum Worldwide to new heights, championing efficiency, innovation, and empowerment. As he puts it, “For us to do something really well, we have to know what we’re doing—and we do.” Through his leadership, Mo is not just driving momentum; he’s shaping the future of how businesses leverage technology to thrive.
