JoPACC in partnership with the ISSF have launched an incubation program to support Fintech startups at pre and post MVP stages. The incubated startups will receive incubation support services to help formalize and scale their fintech startups.
This partnership comes as part of JoPACC and the ISSF’s commitment to support Fintech startups in testing their innovative solutions to grow and scale their business in the local and regional markets.
Jordan’s Fintech ecosystem holds immense potential to address pressing economic and societal challenges. This program was designed to provide Jordanian Fintech startups with access to critical services early in their development stage by enhancing their product-market fit, ensuring operational and compliance readiness and leveraging the latest technologies to boost scalability and efficiency. In turn, this will accelerate the development of Fintech solutions, strengthen Jordan’s position as a regional Fintech hub, create jobs, and contribute to national economic growth.
