On Thursday, the Saudi Ministry of Culture launched the “Fashion Incubator Program”, the first of its kind in the Kingdom, to support entrepreneurs and talents in the fashion and related sectors and develop their products.

The Ministry has opened the door for registration in a virtual hackathon in the first phase of the program for an 8-day period for all students, practitioners, entrepreneurs and self-employed people in the fashion sector, starting today through the online platform.

The program will award prizes to the winning teams in the hackathon stage, where the first place winning team will receive a five-day trip to Milan Fashion Week, while the next three teams will receive cash prizes in addition to honors and other prizes.
