Applications open for Imtiaz Initiative until August 30

The Supreme Council for Women has opened applications for the fifth edition of the "Imtiaz" Initiative, inviting Bahraini female entrepreneurs to showcase their projects and success stories.
The initiative recognises women under 45 with at least three years of entrepreneurial experience. Applicants must be Bahraini nationals, submit a financial report, and hold a valid business licence with at least 50% ownership in a trade or service-based project.
Applications close on August 30. The initiative, launched in 2011 by Her Royal Highness Princess Sabeeka bint Ibrahim Al Khalifa, aims to empower women, promote economic participation, and highlight outstanding business models. Participation has grown from 11 in its first edition to 98 in the fourth.
