Refining the growth strategy
Both Sheraa and The BEEAH Group are looking at refining their growth strategy as well as exploring expansion both geographically and programmatically.
The growth strategy comprises providing a soft-landing programme for regional startups that are planning to expand to Sharjah. The aim is to facilitate startups with resources such as mentorship and funds.
In December 2022, Sheraa partnered with The DMZ, a startup incubator based at Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU), to empower 15 startups from the Emirates to The DMZ-led soft-landing programme.
Sheraa is a UAE-based incubator; BEEAH, its founding partner, collaborates with Sheraa to recognise and aid startups in the sustainability sector.
Sheraa said in a note that since its launch in 2016, it has supported a total of 114 startups and created over 1,300 job opportunities.
