Ali Jehangir Siddiqui was born to Jahangir Siddiqui, a Pakistani businessman and entrepreneur, and Mahvash Siddiqui a university professor and philanthropist. At 15 years of age, he launched a technology business called Advance Micro Research, where he integrated computer network systems for corporations. 


After graduating from Cornell University in 1998, joining the family business was not even considered an option. Ali says, “There is a merit-based system in the family.” In other words, Ali had to prove himself before getting access to the family’s business empire. 


As a result, the opportunity to learn in a small company, his admiration for its management, which consisted of people he had already worked with during summer internships while he was in college, and his “love for Chinese food” took him to Hong Kong, where he worked for a private equity firm.


He was quickly promoted and by the end of his four-year tenure, the business had grown seven-fold. In May 2002, Ali got down to serious thinking and realised that family topped his list of priorities.
