KIB sponsors B2B4SME forum

-

KUWAIT: In line with its ongoing commitment to supporting youth-based initiative­s, Kuwait Internatio­nal Bank (KIB) sponsored the B2B4SME forum. The twoday forum was organized by the National Fund for Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) Developmen­t, under the auspices of the Minister of Social Affairs and Labor and Minister of State for Economic Affairs, Hind Al-Sabeeh.

This first-of-its-kind forum aimed at building an effective communicat­ion channel between small and medium-sized enterprise­s and large private companies. Additional­ly, the forum offered a great opportunit­y for exchanging ideas and experience­s between youth and entreprene­urs, and allowed for other entreprene­urs to connect and network.

Manager of the Corporate Communicat­ions Unit at KIB, Nawaf Najia, said: “We are committed to promoting the spirit of entreprene­urship, and as such always strive to sponsor forums and initiative­s such as these that truly encourage and support local, young entreprene­urs. This forum is in line with our ongoing dedication to supporting youth and developing their innovative business ideas for enterprise­s of all sizes.”

KIB’s commitment to sponsoring and supporting small and medium-sized enterprise­s is ongoing, as the Bank aims at creating an environmen­t which fosters emerging enterprise­s and nurtures entreprene­urship; thereby motivating entreprene­urs to develop new business concepts that drive the private sector and contribute to national economic growth.

It is worth noting that KIB’s role is not limited to providing its progressiv­e banking solutions that suit the various lifestyles and needs of youth, but its role further extends to being their key supporter by participat­ing in various youth-based activities and initiative­s. Accordingl­y, KIB stands as one of the leading local banks which support the youth segment across the community.
