Testimonials About Rowad

The Rowad Nomou program is rich in information and serves as a foundational stage for everything entrepreneurs might encounter when entering the world of entrepreneurship through their innovative ventures.

Salman Butt - Co-founder of the Salla e-commerce platform
In recent years, the spotlight has been on seed-stage startups. Now, we present the first program designed specifically for Saudi startups in the accelerated growth phase, where a group of experts in venture capital investment offers their extensive experience to Rowad Nomou to help these startups navigate the critical expansion phase with the highest level of professionalism.

Founders will face many obstacles and unexpected things during the journey of building their company. The Rowad course gives them an opportunity to learn from market experts so they avoid the common pitfalls other founders experience.

In this content, you'll find the essence of the experiences of those who have tried and those who have preceded you in the journey. Their experiences are presented through useful material that you can apply to your project. The words may be brief, but you can treat them as keys to many other doors that you can open, God willing.

Mazen Al-Darrab - Founder of Zid
After publishing the first book addressingentrepreneurs' problems in 2014, it became the best-selling management book in the Arab world., thank God... and through my daily work with entrepreneurs, I discovered that there are specific funding challenges for entrepreneurial companies that are not solved by traditional funding methods... so the idea was to create the first visual program in the Arabic language focusing on the details of venture capital investment... it is a program full of valuable information that entrepreneurs would otherwise only be able to access at great cost to them.

I highly recommend enrolling in this course, as it is incredibly comprehensive and covers essential topics for entrepreneurs looking to grow their startup.
The videos presented by a group of professional experts in the Saudi startup ecosystem provide invaluable lessons and insights. In addition, the infographics, explainer animations, and interactive exercises make the learning more engaging. Joining this course will be an incredible value-add!
