Oman-based National Finance has renewed its partnership with Sharakah to support entrepreneurship and sustainable growth among small and medium-sized businesses.
The renewed agreement will support the sixth edition of Sharakah’s SME Growth Program, with 14 selected businesses taking part in training workshops, expert-led advisory sessions and capacity-building initiatives, according to the announcement.
The program is designed to help participating companies strengthen their operations, respond to changing market conditions and build more competitive and resilient businesses. This year’s edition will also introduce two new tracks: an Innovation Race and a hackathon. The winning business will receive a grant to help implement its idea.
The partnership is part of National Finance’s corporate social responsibility work through its Imtidad platform. The company said its support for entrepreneurship and SMEs extends beyond financing to include access to knowledge, guidance and practical tools for business growth.
The renewed collaboration reflects the two organisations’ continued focus on supporting Omani entrepreneurs and strengthening the country’s SME ecosystem.
