Talentdu, a rising leader in digital marketing education, has announced a strategic partnership with Futurely, a newly launched tech-education impact initiative. Through this collaboration, Talentdu has secured funding to deliver fully funded corporate training programs focused on the future of digital marketing and the practical use of AI in business.
The initiative, which aims to upskill marketing teams across the MENA region, is designed to make world-class training more accessible to companies of all sizes. With a mission to accelerate AI adoption and digital growth across the region, Futurely will fully sponsor Talentdu’s new one-day intensive corporate training — covering topics such as AI tools for marketers, campaign automation, sales funnel optimization, and digital strategy in the AI era.
“This partnership allows us to scale our impact beyond our consumer-focused programs,” said Omar Kandil, Co-founder of Talentdu. “Thanks to Futurely’s support, we can now offer high-value corporate training completely free of charge — helping teams across industries future-proof their skills and embrace the next wave of digital transformation.”
Each training is delivered live by Talentdu’s expert instructors either on-site or online and is tailored for up to 10 employees per company. The program is open to businesses operating across the Middle East and North Africa, with a limited number of training slots available each month. Companies interested in applying can submit their information via futurely.org to be considered for the upcoming cohort.
Futurely, the backer of this initiative, is a newly formed hub focused on advancing tech and digital education in emerging markets. While Talentdu leads the delivery and curriculum design, Futurely serves as the funding partner — helping expand access to critical upskilling opportunities across the region.
This collaboration builds on Talentdu’s growing reputation for delivering high-impact digital marketing programs, including partnerships with institutions like the Lebanese American University (LAU ACE) and certifications from Meta.
“We believe AI should be accessible to everyone — not just big tech companies,” added Kandil. “By funding training at the organizational level, we’re helping teams adopt AI in a way that drives real business outcomes.”
