Media IN AJMAN, 8th July 2019 (WAM) –
The Khalifa Fund for Enterprise Development (KFED), in cooperation with the Ajman Municipality and Planning Department, recently hosted the special ‘Entrepreneurs Forum’ at Fairmont Ajman hotel for Emirati-owned small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and KFED members.
The event was held to help the attendees reinforce and enhance their communication with local government and semi-government entities, the private sector, local partners and stakeholders. The forum also served as a strategic opportunity for young Emirati entrepreneurs to explore investment opportunities in Ajman.
The event was the first of its kind in Ajman. The Entrepreneurs Forum has been designed and developed to provide a key link between Emirati entrepreneurs, SMEs and various government and semi-government entities, as well as representatives from the private sector, which in turn, can help enhance communication, coordination and a smooth exchange of experiences and knowledge.
The Municipality and Planning Department of Ajman gave a presentation about the emirate’s priority projects and investment opportunities, including their current efforts to encourage entrepreneurship in the UAE, and Ajman in particular.
The department also discussed its Ajman Heritage District Project, an initiative that looks towards supporting investors in establishing their respective projects and providing an ideal environment that offers all the needed elements of success and continuity.
The AED 25 million Ajman Heritage District project is a new investment destination that matches the expectations of investors in the emirate and includes various models and options of investment opportunities at competitive prices.
The Municipality and Planning Department designed the project on a total area of 42,000 square metres. The project has a strategic location, embracing the Ajman Museum, one of the oldest palaces in the Arabian Gulf and the historic Saleh souq, making it a vibrant project and a haven for culture, economy and tourism.
