7/4/25, 11:56 AM Khalifa Fund for Enterprise Development launches ‘Future Entrepreneur’ program to enhance entrepreneurship skills - Middle East …
The program aims to support participants within certain age groups to innovate, develop and sell products
and services in a realistic environment. Through this program, participants will receive expert guidance
and feedback, helping them reach an idea pitching stage, where they can showcase products and

services in a marketplace to promote and sell them and win awards. The training camp, under the
program, enables participants to apply their acquired skills in real markets across various key fields, such
as science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields, pre-owned goods market and food

and beverage kiosks. The camp will also include a stringent evaluation system to recognise exceptional
talents and qualify them to be part of ‘Builders of Future Launchpad.’

Her Excellency Mouza Obaid Al Nasri, CEO of the Khalifa Fund for Enterprise Development,
said, “The Future Entrepreneur program is a testament to our wise leadership’s progressive vision to

support young talents, investing in programs to make them future leaders. Through this initiative, we aim
to foster a culture of innovation among youth and reinforce national entrepreneurship, which is one of the
key pillars of national economy and a driver of its sustainable growth and diversification. Furthermore, we

seek to offer an enabling ecosystem to transform the aspirations of the participants into success stories at
the beginning stage itself, allowing them to grow as successful entrepreneurs and create a lasting impact
across Abu Dhabi’s major sectors.”

The initiative is going to start with an opening ceremony, in “Nabd Al Falah” Center in Al Falah City,
offering participants an opportunity to register and select their preferred pathway under the ‘Inventor’ or
‘Trader’ categories. The selected participants can then engage in a two-week summer camp and gain

practical knowledge in pricing and brand development. The program will extend over a four-week period
beginning mid-July, with two extensive study days per week. It seeks to nurture skills of young individuals
in areas of idea generation, prototype development, budget planning, storytelling and digital tools.
