Bahrain Gateway is an online webinar designed to help startups, founders, and ecosystem players explore Bahrain as a strategic entry point to the GCC market. The session highlights how Bahrain’s streamlined incorporation processes, investor access, government incentives, and supportive ecosystem make it a practical soft-landing destination for tech companies looking to scale in the Gulf. 
 

During the webinar, participants will gain insights into why Bahrain is positioning itself as the gateway to the Gulf, what government-backed support programs and incentives are available for startups, which market-entry routes exist for companies from Central Asia and MENA, and how Bahrain can serve as a launchpad for broader GCC expansion. Five Fold and TUMAR Innovation Hub will share practical insights and real cases from their work in the region.
