Batelco, the leading telecom company in Bahrain, is hosting its second Entrepreneurs Programme designed to help young Bahraini entrepreneurs to start their own businesses.

Batelco held its first Entrepreneurs Programme in April this year and was hailed a big success by participants and mentors involved.

The programme is being organised by Batelco’s Youth Marketing team, in partnership with BDB, Bahrain’s leading development supporter. The programme will run on two consecutive Fridays, June 20 and 27 from 10am to 2pm.

The programme will feature talks by four Bahraini entrepreneurs and business professionals, as well as interactive lectures and inspirational training sessions, covering everything from finance and accounting basics, to marketing and business planning.

The course will share real world experiences from prominent Bahrainis who have achieved successful careers including Haamed Fakhro, Nahla Al Mahmood, Ahmed Al Sawafiri and Abeer Abdulaal.

Batelco general manager Consumer Division Muna Al Hashemi said that the programme will provide a golden opportunity for young Bahraini entrepreneurs wishing to start their own businesses, as it includes many secrets of success and will provide invaluable professional insights presented by a number of business experts.
