Overview: The Arabia Fast Growth 500

HOW OFTEN DO YOU GET A CHANCE TO CHANGE THE WAY THE WORLD DOES BUSINESS?

The Arabia 500 aims to move markets in real time – generating new wealth and expanding development in the Arab world.

The Arabia 500 will find and advance growing private companies in the MENA area and will change the way the world sees and invests in the Middle East and North Africa.

The Arabia 500 will be the first definitive record of the fastest growing, most dynamic entrepreneurs in the region. By shining a light on these emerging business leaders, the Arabia 500 will improve access to capital and markets for entrepreneurs, provide real time feedback to policy makers, point the way forward for large scale job creation and put momentum behind these entrepreneurs as they create the next economy for their countries and regions.

Over the next few months AllWorld Network is creating the Algeria 25, Egypt 25, Jordan 25, Lebanon 25, Morocco 25, Tunisia 25 and UAE 25 as part of the Arabia 500 process.  Right now, we are looking for the fastest growing private companies in these countries. The 25 winners from each country will be recognized between May and July, and subsequently will automatically be considered for the Arabia 500, which will be announced in February 2011.
