People say they feel like they’ve known me forever.
I build rooms that feel the same way.
For international organizations, foundations, and leadership teams navigating work that doesn't fit neatly into anyone's job description.
What I Do
Projects often span multiple regions, with a mix of remote collaboration and on-the-ground support as needed.
Strategic Events
Not just well-run rooms — gatherings designed to move something. Leadership retreats, high-level convenings, donor engagements, and cross-regional forums where the agenda serves a larger purpose.
This is for you if → You have a convening coming up and need it to actually shift something, not just run on schedule.
Partnership Development
The structural work of building relationships that hold. Identifying the right collaborators, navigating the alignment, and helping organizations move from conversation to committed partnership.
This is for you if → Two organizations should be working together — the fit is there but the bridge hasn't been built yet.
Special Projects & Initiative Support
For initiatives that need focused, senior-level support to get off the ground or across the finish line. Launches, cross-team coordination, time-sensitive projects with real stakes.
This is for you if → The initiative is too important and too complex for anyone currently on your team to own it alone.
Who I Work With
My clients are usually dealing with something that doesn't fit neatly into a job description.
International organizations, foundations, and NGOs navigating multi-country work. Leadership teams that need to get aligned and move fast. Initiatives that require both strategic thinking and someone who can actually execute.
If any of this sounds familiar, it's worth a conversation.
Who I Am

I'm Amani El-Negery, founder of Noah Ventures.
For the past decade, I've worked inside some of the most demanding organizational environments in the world — humanitarian operations during active crises, high-level donor engagements, global convenings where the stakes were real and the margin for error was small.
That work taught me something specific: what separates a gathering that changes things from one that doesn't usually isn't resources or ambition. It's whether someone understood what the moment actually required — and built toward that.
That's what I do.
