Vodafone Oman and Riyada team up to bolster development and creativity among Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs)
Vodafone Oman and Riyada Collaborate to Empower Oman's SMEs
Vodafone Oman and the Small and Medium Enterprises Development Authority (Riyada) have joined forces to support Oman's small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) by offering tailored digital solutions and initiatives. This partnership was kick-started with a regional business event in Dhofar, attracting over 150 SMEs to network and explore digital transformation opportunities.
The collaboration presents several benefits for Oman's SMEs, including:
- Affordable communication options through Vodafone's BLACK for Business mobility plans, offering preferential rates for Riyada cardholders.
- Improved outreach and marketing capabilities with Vodafone's MaxImpact Messaging service, a messaging tool for large-scale bulk SMS communication.
- Advanced cybersecurity solutions to protect digital assets and ensure business continuity.
This initiative goes beyond providing resources, focusing on unlocking opportunities for SMEs to enhance their competitiveness, innovation, and sustainable growth across Oman. It forms part of Vodafone's "Live it Right" campaign and aligns with Riyada's mission to increase SME visibility, create meaningful partnerships, and empower entrepreneurs.
The event in Dhofar marked the beginning of a series of events aimed at equipping SMEs across the Sultanate with digital capabilities and strategic partnerships. It served as a platform for entrepreneurs to exchange knowledge and discuss how digital solutions can transform businesses and drive success in a competitive landscape.
Eng. Mohammed Al Alawi, Head of Enterprise at Vodafone Oman, emphasized the importance of connecting SMEs with new audiences for their growth. He encouraged SMEs to contact 7707 1177 to learn more about Vodafone Oman's solutions or access exclusive offers.
This collaboration reflects a shared dedication between Vodafone Oman and Riyada to meet the evolving needs of small businesses. It aims to help SMEs adapt, embrace new possibilities, and achieve sustainable growth, contributing to Oman's economic progress and the development of a robust SME ecosystem.
