Manama, Bahrain: Batelco has announced the launch of a Summer Entrepreneurship Programme in collaboration with BRINC Batelco IoT Hub, which features several workshops designed to target Bahrain’s Youth community including university students and young professionals aspiring to start their own business.
The programme, which takes place at the BRINC
Batelco premises, located in Batelco Commercial Centre, Manama, includes talks
by Bahraini entrepreneurs who will share their experience on how they started
their own businesses. A session will also be delivered on how participants can
build their own business model. Additionally, a representative from Batelco
will present the products and services designed specifically for start-ups to
improve the business management and efficiency.
Commenting on the occasion Batelco General
Manager Consumer Division Maha Abdulrahman said, “As a national entity, we are
proud to be able to support the Kingdom’s youth on their entrepreneurial
journey. The delivery of these sessions supports Batelco’s efforts to help
future generations through educational initiatives.”
“We are also delighted to be able to provide
participants with the opportunity to meet key Bahraini entrepreneurs and allow
for the exchange of knowledge and discussion from these collaborations. Through
providing this platform we aim to contribute towards the development of our
workforce, in line with the Kingdom’s economic
vision.”
The first successful session of the programme was
hosted recently and received very positive feedback from participants who
believe that the advice given during the session will be beneficial in helping
them on their path in setting up their own businesses. They have learned key
elements such as how to put together an overall business model and how to
target their audience. Future workshops will take place in August and
September.
