About Diwanee
Diwanee is a digital media company founded by Lebanese entrepreneur Delphine Edde. It was among the early movers in building professional Arabic-language lifestyle content online, creating and operating popular websites focused on women’s interests, entertainment, fashion, and culture at a time when quality regional digital content was scarce.
By combining editorial expertise with technology and digital advertising, Diwanee grew into one of the region’s notable digital publishers. Its success and eventual acquisition made it a reference point for how Lebanese founders could build media-tech businesses with real regional scale.
Why Diwanee Matters
Diwanee helped prove that there was a real audience and a viable business in high-quality Arabic digital content. Led by a pioneering female founder, it created a template for media-tech in the region and contributed to the growth of a professional online publishing industry rooted in Lebanese talent.
