Amman, Nov. 4 (Petra) – The Ministry of Digital Economy and Entrepreneurship has launched Darb, a national platform aimed at supporting young entrepreneurs from the ideation stage to full project execution, offering three structured tracks focused on creativity, validation, and connectivity.
Developed in partnership with I2Z, managed by Partners for a Better World, the platform was unveiled in conjunction with Jordan’s celebrations of the 17th Global Entrepreneurship Week.
According to the ministry, Darb provides an integrated experience that combines learning, mentorship, and networking, helping entrepreneurs move systematically from concept development to market readiness.
The Creative Thinking track focuses on defining the problem, studying target audiences and markets, and assessing financial viability. The Validation track allows entrepreneurs to test their ideas using a 20-question verification tool and a business model framework, while the Networking track connects them with mentors, partners, and investors to help scale their ventures.
The ministry said the initiative reflects Jordan’s broader push to strengthen its innovation ecosystem and advance the goals of the national digital economy strategy.
