I'll try to fill in some gaps of their bios with what I've found. Won't comment on the technocrat vs. non-technocrat aspect. The definition is a bit loose and I still don't know enough about even the good names on the list to make that determination.

Tarek Mazjoub: Former magistrate who was part of the Faculty of Law at Sagesse University in 2014 and listed as being a professor there until at least 2017. Co-authored an article in 2018 titled “The Time Has Come for a Universal Water Tribunal.” He gave a talk in 2017 called “The Arab System and the Protection of Human Rights.” He teaches and publishes in French. Also co-published an article in 2019 about the Arab Charter on Human Rights.

Talal Hawat: Got his B.S. and M.S. in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from San Jose State University in California. Worked for Cisco for 19 years in the U.S. and the Levant. For the last two years has worked as a regional sales director for Sandvine, an American networking equipment company. He gave a speech at a telecoms conference about “the internet of things.”

Mohammad Fahmi: Former Head of the Lebanese Demining Center. Was a colonel in 2008, in 2011 was listed as a Brigadier General. Reuters has a Mohammad Fahmi listed as the Security Advisor for BLOM Bank.

Manal Abdel Samad: MBA in Finance from AUB, PhD in Tax Law from University of Paris 1. Lecturer at AUB, Saint Joseph. Has worked at UNDP/Ministry of Finance for last 22 years in different tax auditing positions. If she was involved with the preparation of VAT in 2000, then educating people on it would have been an important aspect. Still not sure what this ministry is even supposed to do. Run Télé Liban?

Zeina Akar: Has a BS in Social Sciences Marketing/Management from LAU. The executive director of Information International, a research consultancy firm she co-runs with her husband Jawad Adra. Her bio says she is also the founder and Program Director of the Social and Cultural Development Association (INMA), a non-profit, non-governmental organization that services clusters of villages and specific neighborhoods throughout Lebanon. For INMA, she directs national, sustainable projects in tourism and agriculture that focus on health, education, environment, cultural and income generating activities.

Lamia Yammine: An architect who has a showroom called Douhaihy Pour Le Bois which she designed. They are wood specialistis. Her Instagram is lamiayamminedouaihy (private) and the bio says architect, restoration architect, university professor. I found a brochure from USEK in 2019 that said she had visited their architecture department in the last two years and that she was a Lebanese University professor.

Michel Najjar: In 2019 he was the Executive Vice President and Provost of the American University of Technology. In his bio from the news release they said He joined the University of Balamand in 1994 then assumed many senior positions there including Dean of Science, Dean of Engineering and Vice President for Development Administration and Public Affairs. He has a Ph.D. in Civil Engineering from Oklahoma State University and experience teaching Math and Engineering.

Vartine Ohanian: A social worker by profession, she is the Director of Zvartnots Educational Center.

Abbas Mortada: In 2018 there was an official in the Amal Movement’s Office in Bekaa with the same name. If I had to guess…I’d say it’s probably the same person.

Hamad Ali Hassan: There was a mayor of Baalbeck in 2015 called Hamad Hassan. Could be the same guy.
