Enterprise Qatar (“EQ”) is set to launch their latest initiative, ‘Jadwa’, which offers 70% subsidised consultancy services to the entrepreneurs and SME community in Qatar. Through ‘Jadwa’, consultancy services, specifically feasibility studies and support services will be provided in cooperation with qualified professional service providers. EQ will subsidize 70% of the consultancy services cost whereas the applicants will express their commitment by covering 30%. The ‘Jadwa’ services target two main categories - entrepreneurs in the idea stage and SMEs who are looking to expand or diversify their products and services - to help them develop sustainable businesses. Commenting on the ‘Jadwa’ launch, Enterprise Qatar’s CEO Mr. Abdulaziz Al Khalifa said: “We are keen, at Enterprise Qatar, to provide Qatari entrepreneurs with the direct guidance and consultancy, through professional experts and under our supervision, to guarantee viable studies and active contribution from the entrepreneurs. Our dynamic style will assist Qatari entrepreneurs to ensure their ideas are viable through the help of expert opinions, and come out with the best results.” Al Khalifa also indicated that SMEs who are looking to expand or diversify their products can benefit from this initiative, to reduce the risk associated with expansion. Applying to the ‘Jadwa’ services requires few simple steps through an online application process on EQ’s website: (www.eq.gov.qa) or by calling 40125000, E mail: [email protected] .
