Dubai’s Fincasa and IMT Business School join forces to support start-ups

Fincasa, an investment advisory firm, has teamed up with IMT Business School of Dubai to support start-ups and boost the entrepreneurship ecosystem in the UAE.

Under the agreement, Fincasa will fund business ideas by IMT Business School students and provide mentoring to turn them into successful start-ups. The initiative will “breed new businesses, create employment and help the UAE economy grow”, the entities said in a joint statement on Sunday.

“We get a lot of funding requests … a difficult choice indeed is to select the worthiest ones,” Sayed Varis, chief executive of Fincasa, said.
