Ooredoo recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Ad-Dakhiliyah Governorate office to sponsor the Riyada (Entrepreneurship) award and provide training opportunities for SMEs and government officials in the Ad-Dakhiliyah Governorate. This initiative will benefit Ooredoo’s B2B customer base and boost digital transformation. It will be the first premier Riyada award organized by the Ad-Dakhiliyah Governorate office.
The agreement includes delivering the ‘SpringForward’ training program to participants, focusing on enhancing personal and professional skills through a series of workshops. The program aims to equip young Omanis with entrepreneurship skills, empowering them to become business owners who can contribute to the national economy and create a positive and sustainable impact on future generations.
Bassam Yousuf Al Ibrahim, CEO of Ooredoo, stated, “We are delighted to partner with the Governor’s Office for these awards. Entrepreneurs are key to the diversification of Oman’s economy, and we want to recognize their outstanding achievements through our support of the program. As we continue to develop into a smart telco that goes beyond connectivity, we will also continue driving innovation, contributing to the nation’s digital transformation, and celebrating achievements towards these goals.”
Telecoms form the backbone of any digitally advanced society. By meeting the requirements of the rapidly changing digital world, Ooredoo is positioning itself as the leading digital infrastructure provider in the region by transforming into a telecom and infrastructure holding company with a delayered multi-business structure.
