The first edition of the program attracted approximately 100 applications from four countries: Egypt, Kuwait, Oman and UAE. The program was held at HSBC’s head office in Dubai over a week in March, where the 20 finalists attended workshops, discussion panels, and had the opportunity to mingle with impact investors, industry experts, and other incredible change-makers.
Following the success of this edition, HSBC has renewed its partnership with C3 for three additional years and expanded the program’s reach to 8 countries in MENAT.
