Chairman, Shams
With a vision to grow Sharjah as an entrepreneurial hub, Sharjah Media City (Shams) helps small businesses set up in a cost-effective manner, providing support and opportunities across 120 business licence activities with facilities, legal framework, general and logistic services to investors. Leading the rise of Shams – which currently claims to be the fastest growing media free zone in the UAE – is Al Midfa, who has served as its chairman since February 2017. Under his tutelage, Shams partnered with peer-to-peer lending platform Beehive last year, to provide low-cost funding to its SMEs.
