The Ajman Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ACCI) has signed a memorandum of cooperation (MoC) with the UAE-based award-winning Islamic financial services institution, Ajman Bank, to improve cooperation between the two parties to serve the business community in the Emirates.

The MoC intends to promote SMEs and innovative projects and, to support the start-ups of citizens to develop their business. Further, it will offer the necessary capabilities to assist start-ups, in addition to encouraging Emirati youth to engage in self-employment through providing meaningful opportunities that ensure their success.

Under the Moc, the Ajman Chamber aims to launch the “Ajman Chamber Business Support Program” to provide sufficient funding for citizen entrepreneurs after researching each project separately by a specialist team from the Chamber and Ajman Bank. The initiative will also include training and technical advice to ensure business development with a provision of a comprehensive feasibility study for each project.
