Furthermore, the two parties will build on their existing integration for their mutual benefit, in support of local and international entrepreneurs in the tourism sector. It will also give the targeted entrepreneurs the opportunity to get to know and meet with investors in the Kingdom, in order to create new investment opportunities in the tourism sector commensurate with the nature of the entrepreneurs' businesses. This networking opportunity will also facilitate marketing opportunities for the entrepreneurs within the tourism ecosystem. Endeavor will identify entrepreneurs within the Endeavor global network and empower them with the Fund's various programs and products.

Qusai bin Abdullah Al-Fakhri, CEO of TDF, said: “TDF affirms its keenness, through this MoU, to support and empower entrepreneurs, and to offer the best global experiences in entrepreneurship, as well as to improve the tourist experience by creating high-quality projects. TDF’s aim is to link the private and public sectors to jointly support tourism development in the Kingdom, developing Saudi Arabia as a global tourist destination, in line with both the objectives of Saudi Vision 2030 and the National Tourism Strategy."
The CEO of the Saudi Endeavor Network, Latifa Al-Waalan, said: “The Saudi Endeavor Network aims to support entrepreneurs, providing technology and innovation to build successful projects that positively affect the economy.”
