Elevator Pitch
CEDEM AG CEO & Owner Rasha Oudeh with original Founder Martin Schmid
Martin Schmid, Founder of CEDEM AG:
"I met Rasha in 2012. Recognizing my own strengths in product formulation and
innovation, I decided to sell her CEDEM AG. Her acumen for sales, bolstered by an
extensive network, made her the ideal candidate. She leads a committed team that excels
in identifying and pursuing opportunities."

Rasha Oudeh, Owner and CEO CEDEM AG:
"In the Middle East, I have learned to draw my dreams on the scale of my financial income. In Europe, I have learned how to draw my income on the scale of my dreams.
I must admit, that the person I have become today owes much to the empowering environment for women, which surrounded me. The incredible amount of respect and support I received, particularly from bankers and suppliers in Switzerland and Germany, left me astounded. Even during times when my bank account was empty, they taught me a valuable lesson: Success is not measured solely by the balance in your account or the size of your orders. They truly empowered me to dream.
5 years ago, at the age of 38, I managed to thrive in a region, where entrepreneurship is traditionally solely associated with men, and to build a business and lasting legacy through ethics and values. Today, my ultimate goal is to bring to life the vision of becoming “every person’s partner in wellbeing”. That’s why CEDEM AG is aspiring to raise CHF 500K funds from investors to finance its working capital for operations and expansion growth."
