Jordan has long been home to out-of-the-box thinkers, and the nurturing ecosystem that hosts them. It has led many pioneering efforts in the Arab world in the realm of technology alone. Jordan established its first tech fund back in 1988 and it was the first Arab country to introduce mobile banking, and the first notable tech exit in the region (as well as one of the first tech IPOs) took place right here in our Kingdom.
Jordan was also home to the first: MENA incubator; Arab technology park; Middle East mobile game studio; e-commerce platform; Arabic language search engine; Arabic digital encyclopedia; and Arabic email service provider.
