MUSCAT : Tech Oman, leading community technology platform, has officially announced the launch of its Innovation Campus, a bold initiative designed to empower startups, founders, and the wider technology ecosystem across the Sultanate. As part of this launch, Tech Oman has signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Desk Park, marking a significant step toward building a collaborative innovation infrastructure in Oman.

The Tech Oman Innovation Campus introduces a unique “campus without walls” model—an ecosystem-driven approach that connects entrepreneurs, innovators, and industry leaders through distributed physical and digital environments. The initiative aims to accelerate the journey from idea to execution by providing access to mentorship, incubation programs, workshops, and community-driven engagement.

As part of the collaboration, Desk Park will serve as a key physical hub for the Innovation Campus, hosting curated events, founder sessions, and a selective incubation program tailored for high-potential startups. This partnership reinforces a shared vision to create a thriving, connected innovation community and to enable startups to scale faster within Oman and beyond.

The MoU was signed by Saqib Ahmed Dadabhoy, Director of Innovation Campus at Tech Oman, and Maryam Al Aufi, Co-founder of Desk Park, in the presence of senior leadership from the respective organizations.

Commenting on the launch, Tariq Al Barwani, Founder and President of Tech Oman, said: “The Innovation Campus is not just a space yet also a movement. We are building an ecosystem where ideas are nurtured, founders are empowered, and collaboration becomes the foundation of growth. Our partnership with Desk Park reflects our belief that innovation thrives when community, infrastructure, and opportunity come together.”

The launch aligns with Oman’s broader vision to strengthen its digital economy, foster entrepreneurship, and position the country as a regional hub for innovation. By bridging gaps between ideas, talent, and execution, the Tech Oman Innovation Campus is set to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of the startup ecosystem in the Sultanate.

This initiative marks only the beginning, with Tech Oman planning to expand the Innovation Campus through additional partnerships and locations across the country, further reinforcing its commitment to driving sustainable innovation and economic growth.
