About

The Beginning

In the year 2014, a remarkable journey began, marking the launch and inception of Platform 09. This event was the realisation of a dream held dear by Her Highness Sheikha Shamseh bint Hamad bin Mohammad Al Sharqi, a vision to unite Arab businesswomen under one roof and introduce them to new horizons of opportunity.

The foundation of Platform 09 in 2014 was much more than just an event; it was a bold step towards igniting the flames of creativity and innovation in women’s empowerment and entrepreneurship. It was a resounding call to action, an invitation for Arab businesswomen to come together and pave their paths towards success.

One of the core objectives of Platform 09 was to bring universal experiences to Fujairah, enriching the lives of its people. It aimed to alleviate the challenges of preparing for Ramadan and Eid by offering a convenient one-stop destination for all their needs, eliminating the need to traverse the entire UAE in search of supplies and experiences.

HH Sheikha Shamseh’s vision became a reality, and Platform 09 2014 was the first stepping stone towards this ambitious goal. It set the stage for future endeavours, a testament to the boundless potential of unity, innovation, and women’s empowerment.

As Platform 09 embarked on this journey, it sowed the seeds of change and progress in Fujairah and beyond. The event’s legacy would go on to inspire countless women, entrepreneurs, and dreamers, laying the foundation for a vibrant and dynamic platform that would continue to evolve and flourish in the years to come.
