Promoting the eSports Industry in the MENA Region

Aligned with the U. S. Government's Economic Reform objective, this funding opportunity seeks to advance U. S. economic interests in the MENA region while bolstering the nascent eSports industry.

This initiative will advance and promote the industry to become a part of the mainstream private

sector, encouraging formalization of business development and economic growth.

Through partnerships, technical assistance, and joint ventures with the private sector from the U. S. and other regions, this initiative will develop and implement business strategies and models to monetize the industry.

Further, it will create a viable career option for youth in the region by participating on teams or by producing innovative regional and local gaming and eSports content.
