Objectives

The main goal of the Nomow Cultural Fund is to help professionals to develop their creative works. Furthermore, it encourages promoting local content and supporting local talent. After a concerned study, it was found out that many Saudi artistic projects fail to be finalized due to the fact that they are not properly financed. According to this conclusion, the Saudi Ministry of Culture has made a decision to launch NOMOW that will be responsible of funding such projects.[4]
