Intilaaqah Programme

Set up in 1995, the Intilaaqah programme is a social investment initiative designed to stimulate and encourage unemployed Omani youth to consider starting their own business as a career option. By supporting their business ideas and plans with free expert training and counselling, Intilaaqah aims to create young entrepreneurs who will help diversify the economy away from oil and gas.

Since its inception, this uniquely devised programme has trained more than 7,600 Omanis, many of whom now successfully run their own business. Intilaaqah’s main focus is to help in creating sustainable businesses and job opportunities. It does this by providing guidance, business development assistant and online self paced training courses. Furthermore, the programme offers financial support ranging from US 50,000 to one million to qualified Small and Medium Enterprises (SME’s).
