Partners & Collaborations
The Entrepreneurs Association of the Maldives (EAM) recognizes that a strong entrepreneurial ecosystem is built through collaboration. We work closely with national institutions, private‑sector leaders, development partners, and international organizations to expand opportunities for Maldivian entrepreneurs and strengthen the foundations of a resilient, innovation‑driven economy.
Our approach to Partnership
EAM’s partnership model is built on shared purpose, mutual value creation, and long‑term impact. We collaborate with organizations that are committed to advancing entrepreneurship, supporting economic diversification, and empowering individuals to build sustainable enterprises.

We engage with ministries, regulatory bodies, and state institutions to support policy development, improve the ease of doing business, and align national strategies with the needs of entrepreneurs. These collaborations help create an enabling environment where businesses can grow with confidence.
Private Sector Partnerships
EAM works with corporations, SMEs, industry associations, and investors to strengthen market linkages, promote innovation, and create new opportunities for entrepreneurs. These partnerships support knowledge exchange, mentorship, and business development across sectors.
Academic & Training Institutions
We collaborate with universities, colleges, and training centers to promote entrepreneurship education, research, and skill development. These partnerships help cultivate a future‑ready workforce and inspire the next generation of Maldivian innovators.
