Fujairah's Young Techpreneurs Initiative Enters its final Phase
Under the directives of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Hamad Al Sharqi, Crown Prince of Fujairah, the third and final phase of Fujairah's Young Techpreneurs initiative was launched on July 13 and will run until Thursday, July 17. The final phase will take place at Zayed Complex in Fujairah, following the same arrangements as the previous sessions. There is great anticipation as participants aim to transform their acquired digital skills into real entrepreneurial ventures. This phase represents the culmination of an interactive educational journey that began in April, involving Emirati students from across Fujairah. The students participated in a series of specialised training workshops organised by the Government of Fujairah, represented by the Office of the Crown Prince of Fujairah, in collaboration with Hamdan Bin Mohammed Smart University (HBMSU). The goal of the initiative is to empower young people with the tools of the future and strengthen their skills in key fields such as artificial intelligence, programming, cybersecurity and entrepreneurship. In this final phase, participants will translate what they have learned into practical applications across five key sectors: healthcare, tourism, education, community development, and the economy. Students will choose the track that aligns with their interests, form project teams, and begin implementing their ideas under the supervision of expert mentors who will provide continuous feedback and developmental guidance throughout the process. The daily schedule includes reviewing and enhancing previous applications, utilising recorded workshop sessions available on the Smart Campus platform, and intensive training in presentation skills in preparation for graduation day. Commenting on the final phase, H.E. Dr. Ahmed Hamdan Al Zeyoudi, Director of the Office of the Crown Prince of Fujairah, said: 'The third phase is a turning point in the initiative, where participants move from learning to real-world application. The vision of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Hamad Al Sharqi, Crown Prince of Fujairah, is centred on empowering young people to utilise technology as a tool to address societal challenges, not just as a personal skill. We are proud to see this generation of young national talent applying their knowledge to create innovative projects that benefit the emirate and contribute to building a sustainable digital economy'. He added that the initiative reflects Fujairah's ongoing commitment to promoting smart education and fostering a culture of innovation, supporting sustainable development, and preparing a generation ready to lead the future. Also speaking on the occasion, H.E.

We believe that our youth are the nation's true wealth, and we are confident in their ability to deliver impactful digital solutions that contribute meaningfully to community development and the advancement of our country'. The final phase will conclude with a special graduation ceremony on Thursday, July 17.
