The Undersecretary added that the Ministry is continuing its efforts to launch more initiatives and programs to guide younger generations to the entrepreneurship field, in line with The Entrepreneurial Nation initiative launched in November 2021. The initiative is designed to fundamentally transform the UAE’s entrepreneurial landscape by providing all necessary support, opportunities and enablers of growth to entrepreneurs.
