MUSCAT Zubair Small Enterprises Centre (Zubair SEC), represented by senior advisers and two members, participated in the 2nd GCC Business Incubators and Accelerators Conference held in Bahrain recently. Business incubators, accelerators, and young entrepreneurs from across the GCC, including Oman, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait and Bahrain, participated and presented their experiences at the conference.
Palestine participated as a guest of honour at the conference. Last year, Zubair SEC along with its advisers and three members had participated in the first GCC Business Incubators and Accelerators Conference.
Zubair SEC was extended a special invitation by the Bahraini conference organisers in recognition of the support the centre has been extending to the development of the SME sector in Oman.
