The Tejar Dubai entrepreneurial development program recently organized a week-long workshop series called “Entrepreneurship and Innovation.” It provided young Emirati business-minded people with useful insights and practical advice on how to be successful.
More than 50 participants attended the event at the Dubai Chamber of Commerce‘s office. The Advisory Team, a Dubai-based consulting firm specialized in innovation and entrepreneurship, also made a presentation. The rest of the sessions equipped the young entrepreneurs with a starter toolkit to create and launch a new product/service to the market. Topics such as leadership, customer service, finance, competition were covered.
Essa Al Zaabi, Senior Vice-President of Tejar Dubai, commented:
Startups today are expected to continuously innovate and stand out to stay ahead of the competition. This workshop series provided an ideal opportunity for Dubai’s young entrepreneurs to think outside of the box and enhance their understanding of how innovation-focused strategies can be created and executed across a business.
The Tejar Dubai entrepreneurial development program includes series of events to support young locals to increase their business knowledge and build the foundations for a successful future. Next to the classroom learning, it also provides them with access to seed capital and networking opportunities with business leaders from the Emirates and abroad.
