Overview
Our Partners Are the Foundation of e7’s Success
Today’s young people are looking for meaningful opportunities to learn, lead and create change. Our partners make these opportunities possible.

With a focus on women’s social entrepreneurship and business development, e7 helps bridge the connection between the UAE’s social and economic development priorities.
Each year, the e7 Program supports promising women-led ventures by providing training, mentorship, coaching, resources, networking opportunities and access to funding. These initiatives help ambitious young women transform innovative ideas into sustainable businesses and social enterprises that address real community needs.
United by a Shared Vision, We Empower Young Women Changemakers
Since 2020, the e7 Program has incubated 32 social and business enterprises addressing important community challenges across the UAE. These women-led initiatives have focused on areas including women’s financial literacy, greater opportunities for underserved communities, mental wellbeing, women’s leadership, family cohesion and environmental sustainability.
Through collaboration with businesses, organizations and community partners, we provide young women with the support, resources and opportunities needed to transform innovative ideas into initiatives that create meaningful social impact.

IN THE WORDS OF OUR PARTNERS
Emirates NBD is deeply committed to our local community, and our ability to support and empower the community in which we serve is extremely important, it has been our pleasure to partner with Promise of a Generation to help launch the first year of e7 – Daughters of the Emirates. Working together, e7 is engaging with young women who are emerging leaders to deliver community impact projects for the seven emirates.
I want the e7 participants to never underestimate their capabilities. I'm so proud to be affiliated with this wonderful initiative. I only wish this would have existed when I was their age.
Vice Chairperson and Managing Director at Emirates Growth Fund.
Our region has talented young women and it is in our interest to identify them and offer them an opportunity to intern with CNN. We are excited to welcome the e7 interns and are proud to be able to offer this opportunity as it diversifies our workplace and allows us to play an active role in the enrichment of the community.
In our first year, when we all worked tirelessly to launch the startup, everyone took on multiple roles – working 24/7 pre-launch. There were moments of angst, but also laughter and delight. We ended the launch weekend knowing that e7 would positively impact our young mentees and contribute to the community. Of course, the spa afternoon and a very late hot pot dinner were fun! This sisterhood has sustained us through so much over the years, and I am eternally grateful.
I had told Adela about my work with the girls20 Summit; and we just decided let’s go. We envisioned a 1-day basic event, but it turned into a yearlong program as we included more and more dedicated women. It was a truly magical journey and still is after the 4th cycle!
