Meet Our Team

Founding Team

Oriento was founded by Hossein and Nariman — two entrepreneurs with over 15 years of combined experience in building and scaling international businesses. As immigrant founders ourselves, we understand the unique challenges of launching a startup while navigating the complexities of immigration. We created Oriento to simplify that journey for others — giving you the structure, support, and clarity to focus on what matters most: building your business.

We are immigrant founders

Starting a company while navigating immigration is a bold move — and we’ve done it ourselves. At Oriento, we know the challenges firsthand, and we’re here to share the lessons, resources, and connections that helped us build. You don’t have to figure it out alone. We’re here to make your transition faster, smoother, and more strategic.

Welcome to a launchpad built by founders, for founders. Oriento is more than an incubator — it’s a growing community of global entrepreneurs building the future in Canada.
