Oman: First aviation simulation centre to launch in 2026
MUSCAT - InvestOman, the Sultanate's flagship investment promotion agency, has announced the finalization of agreements paving the way for the launch of Oman's first aviation simulation centre – another key building block in positioning the country as a regional aviation hub. The Evolve Flight Simulation Training Centre, developed by aviation training startup Evolve Flight Training Services (EFTS), will be established in Madinat Al Irfan – a new urban district in Muscat – to provide cutting-edge pilot training services. Unveiling the project, InvestOman said: 'The Sultanate of Oman is taking a strategic step in the field of aviation training with the launch of the Evolve Flight Simulation Training Centre — the first advanced facility of its kind in the country, with an investment of USD 25.3 million and support from both local and international partners.' 'This project comes in response to growing regional demand, with forecasts indicating that GCC countries will require over 2,500 pilots annually by 2040, alongside an 87% increase in demand for simulation-based training since 2022,' the agency stated in a post on Thursday. Covering an area of 4,000 m², the centre will feature a modern, three-bay simulator complex designed with eco-friendly principles — such as energy-efficient construction, green spaces, and circular water management. It will be the first centre in the region to receive LEED Platinum certification and operate entirely on solar power. Other design elements will include auditoriums, pilot lounges, cafeterias, and digitally enabled classroom and briefing zones — ensuring trainees benefit from both practical and academic support in a modern, tech-enabled setting. Separately, Evolve is also building a similar facility — but housing as many as eight simulators — at the Mohammed Bin Rashid Aerospace Hub (MBRAH) in Dubai World Central. Both centres will feature cutting-edge infrastructure and will house a sophisticated fleet of full-flight simulators, including the Airbus A320 NEO/CEO, the Boeing 737 MAX, and others, according to Evolve. Significantly, the new simulation centre in Muscat will complement Oman's expanding domestic aviation training infrastructure, which currently includes institutions such as the Oman Air Flight Training Centre and the Oman Aviation Academy. The latter, located at Sohar Airport, is Oman's premier pilot training institution and the first EASA-certified Approved Training Organization (ATO) in the region. It offers a full suite of pilot training programs, including the Integrated Airline Transport Pilot Licence (ATPL), Private Pilot Licence (PPL), and various other aviation-related courses. Its training fleet includes Diamond aircraft supported by Boeing 737 MAX simulators. The Evolve Flight Simulation Training Centre in Muscat is scheduled to open in June 2026. 2025 © All right reserved for Oman Establishment for Press, Publication and Advertising (OEPPA) Provided by SyndiGate Media Inc.

African Development Bank Unveils Groundbreaking Mapping of Women Entrepreneurs' Associations in Africa
The African Development Bank ( has unveiled the findings of a first-of-its-kind study mapping women entrepreneurs' associations across sixteen African countries, revealing significant capacity gaps that hinder their economic impact. Launched on 6 August in Nouakchott, the study shows that while nearly one in four African women is an entrepreneur, 87 percent of women's associations lack financial management capacity. Only 29 percent have partnerships with financial institutions, and in Mauritania, 83 percent rely primarily on membership fees, underscoring the urgent need for sustainable financing solutions. The report was presented during a workshop that brought together women entrepreneurs' associations, civil society, public institutions, financial institutions, and development partners to review the findings, identify priority needs, and outline action plans. 'This workshop is a genuine space for exchange, co-creation, and forward-looking engagement. We are here to combine our expertise and chart the next steps to support women entrepreneurs' associations across our continent, and in Mauritania in particular,' said Zeneb Touré, Manager of the Civil Society and Community Engagement Division at the African Development Bank. Touré stressed that Africa's future is being shaped by its women entrepreneurs, and this study can serve as a blueprint for inclusive development across the continent 'if we work together'. The mapping exercise also identified success stories, including innovative models for capacity building and financing women-led micro and small enterprises. 'These figures confirm our daily experience in the field. Our associations are brimming with potential, but they need structured support to multiply their impact,' said Fatimetou Mint Sidi Mohamed O. Elvil, President of the Mauritanian Council of Women Entrepreneurs. The workshop also marked the start of a national collaborative effort to replicate best practices and build strategic partnerships. 'This study is of critical importance. It provides a comprehensive overview of our associations, their institutional capacities, and their specific needs,' said Lematt Mint Megueya, President of the Mauritanian Union of Women Entrepreneurs and Traders (UMAFEC). The symbolic handover of the report to representatives of Mauritanian associations marks the start of a new phase of collaboration, positioning each association as a catalyst for the country's economic transformation. The initiative aligns with the Bank's Affirmative Finance Action for Women in Africa (AFAWA) program, launched in 2016 to close the estimated $42 billion financing gap for women entrepreneurs. AFAWA has already partnered with 185 financial institutions, channeling over $1.2 billion to women-led businesses across Africa. Through its 2021–2025 Gender Strategy, the Bank is working to transform key sectors into accessible fields of opportunity, ensuring women and men alike enjoy equal access to resources, infrastructure, and services needed to thrive.
