We are very excited to let everyone know that YallaStartup has been selected to be part of the Global Redesign Initiative by the Young Global Leaders of the World Economic Forum. This means that as a initiative and a community we will have access to some amazing people who will help us in our mission.

This great honour was only made possible by the support of the great MENA entrepreneurial community and  will help raise the awareness and importance of entrepreneurship in the MENA. We as individuals, entrepreneurs and leaders need to take this issue head on, not because it is just good, but because it is a critical component for our future prosperity and stability.

The journey is just starting but it looks pretty exciting so far so YallaStartup!
