The program targets five key governorates: Amman, Zarqa, Irbid, Karak, and Aqaba. It offers specialized training sessions designed to equip participants with essential skills to manage their financial resources effectively and make informed financial decisions.

The focus areas of the program include strengthening participants' capacities in financial management, business development, and strategic financial decision-making, with the broader goal of supporting economic empowerment and sustainable business growth. It is primarily aimed at early-stage entrepreneurs, business owners (including SMEs), youth interested in launching their own ventures, and local business communities across Jordan.

Orange Jordan reaffirmed its strong commitment to supporting local entrepreneurs by equipping them with fundamental financial knowledge and practical tools that drive sustainable growth. This initiative aligns with the company’s broader strategy to promote innovation and build a knowledge-based economy, while continuing to empower students, youth, and entrepreneurs with the skills and experiences needed to thrive in today’s business environment.

Ulrich Haas, Project Manager of Innovative Approaches to Financial Inclusion, emphasized:

“Financial literacy is the cornerstone of sustainable economic development. Through our collaboration with Orange Jordan, we are proud to support entrepreneurs and small businesses across the Kingdom, empowering them with the knowledge and skills needed to grow and create sustainable job opportunities in Jordan.”

This initiative is part of Orange Jordan’s ongoing efforts—through its startup incubators and accelerators—to support entrepreneurship and foster economic growth in the Kingdom by equipping students, youth, and business owners with the necessary skills and knowledge for success in the business world.
