We intend to encourage widespread and regular participation in sports and athletic activities, working in partnership with the private sector to establish additional dedicated facilities and programs. This will enable citizens and residents to engage in a wide variety of sports and leisure pursuits.

WHAT IS IT?

The Hala Yalla Fun Startup Accelerator Programme aims to support enterpreneurs and startups by helping them validating and building their business ideas into something that can be grown on a bigger scale.

We do this by providing seed and early stage funding for startups. Seed funding is the initial stage of funding that allows startups to work full-time on building their initial business without worrying about expenses. We also support them through our expertise and knowledge.

In return for our investments, we take a small stack in the startups we fund. We're always on the look our for passionate enterpreneurs and startups to work with! Contact us now to schedule a meeting!
