About Us
The Oman-UK Comprehensive Agreement of 2019 promised more co-operation in the areas of digital skills and cyber security. To fulfil this promise the British Embassy Muscat launched the UK-Oman Digital Hub with two separate but linked workstrands, ‘Cyber Skills’, and ‘Digital Economy’. The programme covers multiple small-scale projects designed to help diversify the Omani economy through support to start-up communities, boost employment in digital technology through training and mentoring, and increase cyber resilience through educational qualifications and talent fostering.
