Development institutions & donors
Contracting capacity, reporting on results, and delivery infrastructure that predates the grant. Local access keeps unit cost low.
Two doors into the same organisation. Founders and SMEs join the union. Institutions, investors and government partner with the association.
Membership is open to Syrian entrepreneurs and small and medium enterprises — inside Syria and in the diaspora — as well as to mentors and investors who want to be close to the ecosystem.
A legally registered institution carrying genuine grassroots entrepreneur trust — already operating, already convening.
Contracting capacity, reporting on results, and delivery infrastructure that predates the grant. Local access keeps unit cost low.
A structured, recurring pipeline of prepared founders — and a credible on-the-ground counterpart for diligence and follow-on.
Joint programming, mentor pools and a route from campus into a working founder network.
An aggregated sector position instead of scattered individual complaints, plus a channel to test regulation against reality.
MoUs and joint programming — as with Tripoli Entrepreneurs Club — for cross-border learning and deal flow.
Access to documented founder journeys, recorded sessions and spokespeople who operate in the market daily.
Tell us what you are trying to do in Syria and who you need in the room. We will come back with what is realistic, what it costs, and how fast it can run.
