Driven by Unicorn Hunters Hit Reality & Investment Television
Series
DOHA,
Qatar, May 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ --
Unicorn Hunters, the groundbreaking reality business
series offering entrepreneurs a global platform to connect with
millions of investors worldwide, has announced a new strategic
partnership with the Qatar Financial Centre Authority (QFCA) as it
works to advance the nation as a world-class onshore financial and
business hub.
This exciting new collaboration stands to further Qatar's efforts to attract technology
entrepreneurs and innovators to the region, while simultaneously
developing new partnerships and funding avenues for the Unicorn
Hunters series, to the benefit of investor-fans, and featured
entrepreneurs alike.
As part of their historic agreement, Unicorn Hunters and the
QFCA will work together to position Qatar as a leading global innovation hub,
connecting the country with innovators and entrepreneurs from both
the Eastern and Western hemispheres. The partnership will also
support the deployment of the Unicorn Hunters show in Qatar, integrating the series into the
country's innovation ecosystem and facilitating access to
funding.
As part of a historic Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed
at a special Signing Ceremony on the sidelines of the Qatar
Economic Forum 2024, Unicorn Hunters and the QFCA will additionally
work to promote and facilitate opportunities for entrepreneurs to
establish operations in Qatar,
with incentives available for a 'soft-landing' process and ensuring
greater ease of doing business. High-growth startups may further be
selected to be showcased on Unicorn Hunters, with the partnership
also fostering collaboration on blockchain and financial
technologies to ultimately democratize financial access to
funding.
"Qatar's commitment to
technological prowess and ease of business start up and market
integration, for example, to streamline the process of opening a
new company in-country, makes this a perfect partnership," stated
Silvina Moschini, CEO of Unicorn
Hunters and founder of the Unicoin, the official token of Unicorn
Hunters. "At the same time, we are looking for future $1 billion 'Unicorn' companies to support and
invest in Qatar, a nation striving
to create an open and inviting economic environment for
entrepreneurs from all walks of life who want to be the next
Unicorn."
As part of Qatar's National
Vision for 2030, the country has committed itself to creating a
dynamic and sustainable economy by reinvesting its significant
energy wealth into various other industries. The QFCA's robust
legal and regulatory frameworks additionally offer emerging
companies access to one of the fastest-growing economies in the
world.
"This partnership reflects QFC's ongoing efforts in supporting
Qatari entrepreneurs and empowering local startups and SMEs by
providing a conducive business environment and an advanced
innovation ecosystem that helps them grow and expand," said
Yousuf Mohamed Al-Jaida, Chief
Executive Officer, QFC.
Viewed by millions globally, Unicorn Hunters supports emerging
businesses by democratizing access to funding, giving entrepreneurs
the opportunity to raise expansion capital from viewers around the
world. In turn, viewers have the chance to make entry-level
investments in pre-IPO opportunities. In 2022, Unicorn Hunters
launched the Unicoin cryptocurrency, backed by
real-world assets and investments in companies featured on the
program.
