Riyadh - Sharikat Mubasher: The Small and Medium Enterprises General Authority (Monsha’at) signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Environment Fund to empower startups in the environment sector.

According to the official statement, the MoU was signed by Saud Al-Sabhan, Monsha’at Vice Governor for Entrepreneurship, and Fahad Alaboud, Chief Shared Services Officer at the Environment Fund, on the sidelines of the Environment Thon (Envirothon 2026), a technical competition focused on the intersection of environmental science and computational modeling to address critical ecological challenges.
