The Dubai Financial Market (DFM) and Dubai Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with 20 regional and global advisors, have launched ‘The IPO Accelerator Program’ to support businesses in the region on their path to growth and IPO, increasing the momentum of the emirate’s capital markets.
The Program is part of the Dubai Economic Agenda D33 projects that aim to strengthen Dubai’s leading position as a global commercial and financial hub.
DFM and Dubai Chamber of Commerce, one of the three chambers operating under Dubai Chambers, are partnering with numerous local and international advisory firms that are a key part of Dubai’s financial and business ecosystem to accelerate the growth of regional private companies and nurture them for the IPO journey.
