IFC, ADGM Launch Initiative to Boost Opportunities for Women-Led Startups and Businesses Across MENA

Dubai, United Arab Emirates, December 15, 2021—IFC and Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) today launched She Wins Arabia, an initiative to help women-led startups across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) get the advice, finance, and mentorship they need to grow.  

She Wins Arabia will support incubators, accelerators, and venture capital funds—through capacity building and training, among others—so they can better help women-led startups and businesses. IFC and ADGM will also provide the opportunity to women-led startups to pitch their business plans to a panel of judges to receive financing and mentorship opportunities from key ecosystem leaders and potential investors.
