Bidaya

Bidaya for institutions

Business support inside the programs you already run.

Residencies, cohorts, incubators and competitions teach craft well. What their practitioners are rarely taught is the company: licensing, pricing, invoicing, the numbers, the first hire. Programs is where Bidaya does that work, inside the structures institutions already run, as a partner in them.

What we do about it

Our network of professionals across all industries has provided us the space to build programs, trainings, workshops, and events that cater to building up aspiring entrepreneurs and the creative field across the UAE. If you're looking to build a program or community supporting entrepreneurship in the UAE, Bidaya manages your project from ideation to launch.

Who it is for

We want to work with institutions across the UAE to create programs that support and promote young and creative entrepreneurs who want to build their businesses. Through trainings, workshops, idea sharing, and ongoing support through our very own talent network, Bidaya aims to support independent workers, aspiring artists, and creative entrepreneurs unlock the doors required to build and grow their businesses sustainably. If you're an organization looking to build a supportive program or community to grow business acumen across different industries, consider Bidaya as your partner for growth.

How we do it

  • Workshops, trainings, & ongoing advisory. Aiming to teach better business acumen and provide the tools required to run your work efficiently. Custom built around the needs and the tools used by the audience. Ideal for one-day efficiency trainings for events or corporate programs, or for a multi-part course aimed to increase productivity for a company, community, or collective.

  • Programs and partnerships. Bidaya also aims to partner with educational and creative institutions to create events, competitions, and programs that continue to build spaces for aspiring entrepreneurs early in their journey.

  • Project management. Bidaya offers project management to institutions setting up independent community events and programs aimed to promote entrepreneurship across the UAE. Our network provides our clients the partners, sponsors, entertainment, speakers, and more, while supporting small independent businesses within the region.

Why we do this

Bidaya was started with the people least likely to be offered serious support and most likely to need it in mind: freelancers in the creative field, young aspiring entrepreneurs, and studios. The firm's work with funded companies is what pays for it. Programs is where the founding intent lives, and it is built and funded together with the institutions, partners and sponsors who share it.
