Making Oman a hub for emerging tech

Building a regional hotspot with a practical growth toolbox for start-ups

Situation

The Oman Technology Fund (OTF) set out to position Oman as a premier regional hub for innovation. To succeed, they needed to ensure their portfolio companies were not just funded, but commercially viable. The challenge was to give a global cohort of founders a unified, practical method for selling their ideas and securing partnerships.

Solution

From 2018 to 2020, True & North was responsible for key elements of the OTF‘s Entrepreneur Education Curriculum. We delivered Client-centred Thinking, a methodology that simplifies complex client interactions into human-centred steps, with workshops and coaching sessions in Muscat, London and online.

By providing founders with a tangible toolbox of skills, we helped them move from technical idea to scalable business with the confidence to land clients faster.

 

The results

Start-ups gained the specific steps and skills required to prepare their businesses for rapid growth.

Market Impact

A practical sales method that allowed teams to impact their markets and land clients immediately.

Faster Deals

Founders learned to interrogate client needs, enabling them to land partners and solidify deals faster.

“True & North’s work enabled the Oman Tech Fund’s cohorts to understand their clients better and be prepared for growth while developing their ideas into businesses. Our start-ups received a practical, well-packaged toolbox based on the methodology of design thinking for sales, giving them the knowhow to sell more immediately.”
