He described Biban as a bridge linking ideas with investment, giving entrepreneurs opportunities to connect directly with investors and enabling entities in an environment that stimulates innovation. He emphasized that, through Biban, Monsha’at seeks to help cement the Kingdom’s position as a global hub for entrepreneurship and innovation by drawing on the Kingdom’s great potential, attractive entrepreneurial environment, and inspiring human capabilities, under the great support and attention the wise leadership, may Allah support it, gives to this sector.
