Ecosystem Support Start. Grow. Scale.

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​In most cities, regions and countries, a critical ingredient of a vibrant ecosystem for entrepreneurship is the quality and quantity of collaboration and cooperation among players especially as the maturity level of the field increases.

​What We Do?​

Taking part in collaborating with the ecosystem is part of ou​r mission at the Darwazah Center. We also stand ready and have engaged in helping by sharing our know-how with other accelerators and sister university centers of excellence. 

Indeed, building up the MENA’s current fledgling innovation and entrepreneurship landscape into a vib​rant ecosystem is core to our mission.
