What are we looking for? We’re looking for innovative, new ideas for Bahrain and the middle-east. We’re looking for a dedicated team, who can show us they’ll do everything it takes to succeed. We’re looking for companies that can really do something substantial in the first 3 months after they’re started. We want you to grow outside of Bahrain and be ambitious. What are we not looking for? We’re not looking for real-estate projects, or incredibly capital intensive projects. We’re not interested in funding something that already exists in a very competitive market. We’re not looking for something that no one would want or need.
