Qatar Business Incubation Centre (QBIC) CEO, Aysha Al Mudakha, talks in an exclusive interview about the benefits of operating an SME and the programs available to entrepreneurs.
What are the benefits of operating an SME here in Qatar, and where do you perhaps see opportunities for improved regulation?
The benefit of operating an SME in Qatar is that there is a lot of support available to help you get started and grow in the early “make or break” stages of a business. Qatar Business Incubation Centre (QBIC) supports entrepreneurs through its flagship LeanStartup Program turning innovative ideas into startup businesses and Lean Scaleup Program turning existing young businesses into scalable companies. QBIC alone doesn’t empower SMEs in Qatar, as we have the support of Qatar Development Bank and the Social Development Center, and QBIC in turn supports these organisations.
