In the vibrant city of Sharjah, Lammah Space has quickly emerged as a go-to destination for students, entrepreneurs, and small businesses seeking a comfortable and collaborative environment to thrive. Founded by Saudi national Semah Jamal, Lammah was born out of the need for a co-working space that feels like home—offering not just a quiet place to study or work, but also a community-driven atmosphere where connections are nurtured and innovation flourishes.
A Vision Rooted in Comfort and Connection
Lammah Space is built on the simple yet powerful idea of creating a place where people can work or study in comfort, away from the distractions of home or crowded public spaces. According to Semah, “We noticed that many students or workers didn’t have a space that was quiet, relaxed, and offered the features of a co-working space. At Lammah, you can find a space to enjoy, connect with others, and nurture your creativity.”
This ethos of warmth and belonging is what sets Lammah apart. The space offers a variety of workstations, from individual desks to private meeting rooms, all equipped with the latest technology—interactive screens, TV, and more. Whether you’re working solo or collaborating with a team, Lammah provides the flexibility to meet your needs.
Building a Thriving Entrepreneurial Ecosystem
Lammah’s impact extends beyond providing a physical space for work; it’s also deeply committed to fostering the local entrepreneurial ecosystem in Sharjah. “We are always looking for new opportunities to partner with local businesses that align with Lammah’s vision,” says Semah. As an entrepreneur herself, she understands the challenges of starting a business, having built Lammah while maintaining a full-time job. Her journey has led to the growth of Lammah as not just a business, but a family where customers and partners alike feel a sense of belonging.
By promoting entrepreneurship and offering partnerships with local businesses, Lammah supports Sharjah’s growing community of innovators. The space has become a nurturing ground for ideas, encouraging collaboration and mutual growth among its members.

From individual seating options to fully equipped meeting rooms and cozy lounge areas, Lammah offers the perfect blend of professionalism and relaxation. Members can sip on specialty coffee while brainstorming their next big idea, or find a quiet corner to focus on their studies.
“We offer different kinds of spaces for different needs,” explains Semah. “From individual seating to interactive meeting rooms and even a lounge area for those looking to unwind.” The thoughtful design of the space makes it ideal for students, remote workers, and entrepreneurs alike, offering a mix of privacy and collaboration.
A Community that Thrives on Connections
At the core of Lammah’s mission is community. More than just a co-working space, Lammah fosters meaningful connections among its members through events, workshops, and partnerships. “Lammah is all about connections, relationships, and building a community of professionals,” Semah emphasizes.
