Enabling MENA's innovation ecosystem Changelabs was founded to help impact-centered entrepreneurs in MENA succeed.

We achieve this by designing and running some of the region's leading entrepreneurship programs, in partnership with development organizations, governments, and the private sector. Our learning programs are unique in that they all seek to achieve social and developmental outcomes while supporting entrepreneurs. Over the past three years, we've worked with leading organizations like Amazon, FMO, GG
