Omar Farhoud
Senior Account Manager in Aix en Provence
As a Lebanese-born professional from Beirut now living in France, I am a Doctorate candidate in Higher Education Management at the University of Bath and Sales Manager at OCLC, where I bridge the gap between academic libraries and digital innovation. With 20+ years in library technology, I specialize in helping universities navigate performance-based funding, research evaluation frameworks, and metadata systems to maximize their impact in a metrics-driven world.
My research focuses on academic capitalism, institutional isomorphism, and the future of open knowledge systems. I am passionate about advising universities on policy, technology, and global competitiveness.
