Tamkeen to showcase 14 Bahraini startups at GITEX Global 202

Oct 5, 2025

The Labour Fund has announced the organization of the Kingdom of Bahrain’s Pavilion at GITEX Global 2025, one of the world’s largest technology exhibitions, taking place in Dubai, UAE, from October 13–17, 2025.

The pavilion will feature 14 Bahraini technology startups and small and medium enterprises (SMEs) from across the ICT sector, alongside the Economic Development Board (EDB) and ARRAY Innovations.

Participation in GITEX provides Bahraini enterprises with a global platform to showcase their solutions, expand their customer base, connect with investors and partners, and exchange expertise with leading international innovators. These engagements help drive sustainability, productivity, and growth while reinforcing their role in generating quality employment for Bahraini talent.

Bahraini companies achieved notable traction at last year’s edition, where seven agreements were signed between participating Bahraini enterprises and regional and international companies. The pavilion drew strong attention from investors and visitors, marking Bahrain’s growing regional reputation as a technology hub.

Tamkeen’s participation aligns with its 2025 strategic priorities, which emphasize enhancing Bahrainis’ competitiveness in the private sector, developing future-ready skills, and supporting enterprise growth, digitalization, and sustainability. These goals are reflected in Tamkeen’s 2025 Annual Plan.
