The Labour Fund (Tamkeen) and Salica Investments have announced the launch of the second cohort of the Riyada Business Accelerator Program in Bahrain, with applications now open for tech start-ups until December 4, 2025.
The program is tailored for tech start-ups with Minimum Viable Products (MVPs) or those nearing product launch. Eligible participants must have at least one Bahraini founder or hold a Commercial Registration (CR) in Bahrain.
Over six months, selected start-ups will receive mentorship, funding opportunities, and support in commercialization, product development, and financial management. The initiative aims to empower entrepreneurs and strengthen Bahrain’s start-up ecosystem.
“Our mission is to empower start-ups by providing the tools, knowledge, and connections they need to thrive in today’s competitive landscape,” said Zainab Khamis, Managing Director of the Riyada Business Accelerator Program. She emphasized the importance of tailored mentorship, industry collaboration, and investor engagement in fostering entrepreneurial success.
