Six Bahraini startups are receiving support from Tamkeen to take part in Fintech Forward 2026, giving local businesses an opportunity to present their services and meet investors and industry leaders.
In its 7 October announcement, the Labour Fund named Tanami, Aman, ARP Digital, Shield Insurtech, Soor and ME Platforms as the companies participating under the Kingdom of Bahrain’s pavilion.
The fourth edition of the forum runs on 7–8 October 2026. It brings together financial-services specialists and decision-makers to discuss industry challenges, investment opportunities and collaboration.
Tamkeen said the participating businesses would be able to demonstrate their solutions, develop professional connections and explore partnerships that could support expansion into new markets.
Khalid Al Bayat, Tamkeen’s deputy chief executive of programme design and delivery, described the initiative as part of its work to strengthen Bahrain’s fintech sector and support the competitiveness of local enterprises.
For the six startups, the event provides a platform to connect with the wider financial-technology community while showcasing Bahraini innovation.
