TechOman, a leading community technology platform, officially announced the launch of its Innovation Campus, a bold initiative designed to empower startups, founders and the wider technology ecosystem across Oman.


As part of this launch, TechOman has signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Desk Park, marking a significant step towards building a collaborative innovation infrastructure in Oman.


The TechOman Innovation Campus introduces a unique “campus without walls” model — an ecosystem-driven approach that connects entrepreneurs, innovators, and industry leaders through distributed physical and digital environments. The initiative aims to accelerate the journey from idea to execution by providing access to mentorship, incubation programmes, workshops and community-driven engagement.


As part of the collaboration, Desk Park will serve as a key physical hub for the Innovation Campus, hosting curated events, founder sessions and a selective incubation programme tailored for high-potential startups. This partnership reinforces a shared vision to create a thriving, connected innovation community and to enable startups to scale faster within Oman and beyond.


The MoU was signed by Saqib Ahmed Dadabhoy, Director of Innovation Campus at TechOman, and Maryam al Aufi, Co-founder of Desk Park, in the presence of senior leadership from the respective organisations.


Commenting on the launch, Tariq al Barwani, Founder and President of TechOman, said, “The Innovation Campus is not just a space, but also a movement. We are building an ecosystem where ideas are nurtured, founders are empowered and collaboration becomes the foundation of growth. Our partnership with Desk Park reflects our belief that innovation thrives when community, infrastructure and opportunity come together.”


The launch aligns with Oman’s broader vision to strengthen its digital economy, foster entrepreneurship and position the country as a regional hub for innovation. By bridging gaps between ideas, talent and execution, the TechOman Innovation Campus is set to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of the startup ecosystem in Oman.
