Those who are interested in participat­ing in upcoming sessions can get more details from the bank’s social media accounts. The event is normally held during the first week of every month.

The speakers at the Buraimi event shared their experience­s in their start-up journey and how they overcame challenges regularly. They also shared their learnings about the importance of time management to maintain a satisfacto­ry work-life balance. The entreprene­urs present keenly followed the informal discussion­s.

Importantl­y, the knowledges­haring sessions are a follow-up to the various initiative­s undertaken by the bank to promote the growth and developmen­t of the SME sector in the country. The speciallyd­esigned Najahi products mainly include credit facilities without the need for collateral to develop and grow micro and small businesses. Bank Muscat’s Najahi is the only financial product from any bank in the Sultanate to offer loans without any collateral.
