NIZWA, NOV 13

In a move to reinforce its commitment to supporting entrepreneurship and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), the Oman Chamber of Commerce and Industry (OCCI) in Al Dakhiliyah Governorate launched the marketing campaign and unveiled the visual identity for the first Entrepreneurs Forum in the governorate.

The official ceremony, attended by Shaikh Saleh bin Dhiyab al Rubaiee, Wali of Nizwa, marked the beginning of a promotional campaign aimed at establishing the forum as a vital platform for collaboration and innovation in the business sector.

He unveiled the forum's new visual identity, symbolising concepts of innovation and sustainable growth. The logo features sharp, upward lines representing ambition and a forward-looking vision, while balancing creativity with traditional values that resonate with Al Dakhiliyah's cultural heritage.

This visual identity aims to elevate the value and image of SMEs, building trust and credibility through vibrant colours and attractive designs that emphasise sustainability and contribute to business success.

Ahmed bin Abdullah al Kharousi, Head of the Small and Medium Enterprises Committee at the Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Al Dakhiliyah branch, said: "The forum represents an important collaboration in supporting SMEs, which play a crucial role in Oman’s economy. The forum will create new opportunities and inspire economic growth by connecting participants and helping them build professional relationships that foster future success."

The forum will commence on the November 27 and will continue for four days, featuring over 87 exhibitors, including entrepreneurs, home-based businesses and SME owners, showcasing a wide range of products.

The event will also include training sessions and entertainment activities aimed at skill development across various fields. Attendees will have the chance to explore success stories from experienced entrepreneurs, offering fresh and innovative ideas to inspire participants.
