The awards are based on nominations and will honor outstanding startup founders and mentors for their achievements within the UAE’s entrepreneurial ecosystem. Nominations are now open and entries will be closed on 18th January, 2024.
The SEFFY Awards, integral to the Sharjah Entrepreneurship Festival, a flagship event organized by the Sharjah Entrepreneurship Center (Sheraa), recognizes founders and mentors for their exceptional contributions in various domains, while embracing the diverse expanse of entrepreneurship with four distinctive categories, each spotlighting a unique facet of entrepreneurial triumph.
