This partnership highlights stc Bahrain’s strong commitment towards investing in the country’s education technology and actively supports the Kingdom’s initiative to promote digital empowerment in education. By working collaboratively on the TEL incubator, stc Bahrain and RCSI Bahrain will increase engagement in education and healthcare throughout the region. This alliance will also promote educational development as a direct result of the work and research by both companies.
