UAE launches major programme to train 10,000 Emirati entrepreneurs

The UAE Ministry of Economy and Tourism, in collaboration with the New Economy Academy and Ignyte, the platform developed by the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), has launched a new initiative aimed at fostering entrepreneurship among Emirati citizens.

Programme Objective

The project aims to train 10,000 Emiratis through a series of online and offline courses designed to provide participants with practical skills for building scalable businesses — from developing business models to expanding into international markets.
This initiative is part of the national campaign “The Emirates: The Startup Capital of the World”, launched by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, to strengthen the UAE’s global leadership in innovation and entrepreneurship.

The training covers key topics:
✓ Business model development
✓ Market analysis
✓ Financial planning
✓ Legal frameworks
✓ Marketing strategy and investor pitching

Building the Economy of the Future

Training 10,000 citizens in entrepreneurship marks a major step toward increasing the contribution of SMEs to the country’s GDP and developing a knowledge-based, diversified economy — one where Emiratis play a leading role in creating innovation and new employment opportunities.

The UAE is rapidly becoming not only a global tourism hub but also a thriving destination for business and investment growth.
If you want to be part of a dynamic market where the government actively supports innovation and entrepreneurship — consider investing in Dubai real estate as your first step toward business and financial success.
