Hope Ventures, the investment arm of Hope Fund, and Injaz Bahrain, are thrilled to announce the official airing date of the highly anticipated entrepreneurship show ‘Beban Juniors.’ The show is set to premiere on Tuesday, March 12th at 6:45 PM on Bahrain TV Channel and YouTube and will continue to air every Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday during the Holy month of Ramadan.
Beban Juniors is an entrepreneurial show where young entrepreneurs between the age of 6-17 years old pitch their projects to a panel of judges. The show aims to inspire the pursuit of entrepreneurship and empower the next generation of entrepreneurs, fostering a mindset of innovation, creativity, and business acumen.
Through the program, viewers at home will have the ability to fund the projects presented on the show through Beban Reward-based crowdfunding (beban.me).
The aim of this initiative is to allow businesses and creatives to share their vision with the communities that will come together to fund them. To thank the funders for their support, businesses will offer unique rewards related to the project, either what is being produced or an experience unique to the project.
Chairman of Hope Fund, His Excellency Aymen bin Tawfiq Almoayed, commented on the occasion: “Our mission in establishing Beban Juniors remains unwavering: to support the next generation of young entrepreneurs and showcase the immense talents and capabilities within the Kingdom of Bahrain. Through the introduction of rewards-based crowdfunding, we provide a channel for these ambitious young minds to validate their innovative business concepts in the market and allow young entrepreneurs to gain backing from people who know them and support them.”
On her part, Her Highness Sheikha Hessa bint Khalifa Al Khalifa, Chairperson at INJAZ Bahrain, said: “Equipping our youth with entrepreneurial skills goes beyond simply business skill development; it’s about forging a future defined by innovation, creativity, and resilience. We are proud to be partnering with Hope Ventures to bring the ‘Beban Juniors’ vision to life. The program will not only spotlight the aspirations of Bahraini youth but also empower them, providing a stage for their entrepreneurial spirit to shine.”
