In an era where technical expertise is rapidly driving startup success and scaling its growth, this partnership addresses a critical need in Bahrain's entrepreneurial landscape.

"Building a thriving startup ecosystem requires a strong foundation of technical talent," expressed Yanal Jallad, Managing Director at Reboot Coding Institute. "With over 50% of Startup Weekend participants coming from Reboot and a student body of 400 developers and growing, it makes sense to deepen our collaboration with StartUp Bahrain. Together, we're not just teaching code – we're empowering future founders with the technical capabilities to build and scale their innovative solutions, and encouraging developers to pursue their entrepreneurial interests and ideas."
Maryam Malik, Project Manager at StartUp Bahrain, stated.
