Riyadh - Sharikat Mubasher: Sanabil Investments, wholly owned by the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF), launched Sanabil Founder University by LAUNCH, a Riyadh-based talent program designed to support global founders and early-stage startups.

This 12-week program aims to equip promising founders, early-stage builders, and first-time entrepreneurs with the tools, resources, and mentorship they need to transform ideas into viable, scalable companies, the company revealed in a press release today.

This initiative represents a significant step in Sanabil’s commitment to developing the entrepreneurial ecosystem in Saudi Arabia and beyond.

Sanabil Founder University will not offer investment upon entry; however, it will connect high-performing founders with leading regional and international investors. They may be considered for investment by LAUNCH and other partners during or after the program.

A spokesperson at Sanabil Investment emphasized the company’s dedication to empowering the next generation of entrepreneurs who will shape the future of the global economy.

The program will focus on fundamental startup principles, including product-market fit, cap table structuring, customer acquisition, product design, and fundraising, alongside workshops and speaker-led sessions.
