The QFTH Programs will comprise of an incubator (for early-stage start-ups) and an accelerator (for mature FinTechs) and will focus on key priority areas such as payment solutions, solutions for SMEs, Islamic FinTech, and regulatory technology. With the announcement of the QFTH Programs, applications will open for Wave 1 in early June 2020 for a duration of 8 weeks.
FinTechs applying to the QFTH Programs will get an opportunity to be part of a 12-weeks virtual incubation or acceleration journey that will provide essential support required to establish their businesses locally and grow internationally.
