    • Society & Culture

Kerem Durdag was born to Turkish parents and raised in Pakistan. He came to the US for college. For more of his background story listen to New Mainers Speak 079 from Nov 1, 2015.
Presently, Kerem is the Chief Operating Officer of (Great Works Internet) GWI.net. He speaks with passion about digital inclusion and digital equity and explains why that is paramount to Maine's success as we head into our future together as a state.
At work and in community pursuits, Kerem uses his three languages and all his other magical talents to advocate for immigrants in Maine. The Indus Fund is a newly formed structure that offers a clever way to make small loans more accessible and affordable for immigrant entrepreneurs. Learn more at Amjambo Africa.

Kerem is preparing two upcoming performances. One is with Pecha Kucha in a few weeks and the other is potentially going to have a far wider reach as a musical about immigration, encouraged and commissioned by Portland Ovations. Click here to sample of some of Kerem's recent creative works.

Music: U2 "Ultra Violet" (Light My Way)
