The 100-Step Business Accelerator Program by Sarmat is a high-impact, execution-focused course for aspiring and early-stage UAE entrepreneurs. Delivered over 7 intensive sessions and 15 hours of live workshops, it walks participants through the full journey: writing a bank-ready business plan, choosing the right free zone or mainland structure, navigating UAE corporate tax, VAT, ESR and UBO compliance, hiring your first employees, and activating sales. Built on tested frameworks, not theory — and trusted by regional founders in 2026.

The 100-Step Business Accelerator is delivered across three sequential tracks. Each track maps to a real founder milestone, so you graduate with a written plan, an active license, and a business ready to invoice — not just a certificate.
Before a single dirham leaves your pocket, you'll write a bank-ready UAE business plan, build a 3-year financial model, validate demand for your product, and price your offer using one of the five proven UAE SME pricing models. Steps 1–30 of the program.
UAE Business Plan — 12-section template that banks and investors actually read
Financial Projections — 3-year forecast and 12-month cash flow
Market Validation — test demand before spending AED 50,000+
Pricing Strategy — choose the right model for your market
Convert your plan into a fully licensed, banked, and compliant UAE entity. You'll learn how to choose between mainland and free zone, pick the right activity code, open a corporate bank account, and prepare for UAE corporate tax, VAT, ESR and UBO from day one. Steps 31–60 of the program.
Free Zone vs Mainland — pick the right structure for your activity
License & Activity Selection — avoid the mistakes that block banking and visas
UAE Corporate Tax 2026 — the 9% rule, free zone exceptions, first filing
VAT, ESR & UBO — register and file on time, every time
With the entity live, you turn it into a revenue-generating business. You'll write your first SOPs, sponsor your first hire, build a sales engine, and run the 8 KPIs every UAE SME owner needs to watch weekly. Steps 61–100 of the program.
Standard Operating Procedures — the 7 documents that make your business sellable
Your First Hire — sponsor an employee without breaking cash flow
Sales Activation — commission structures and lead-gen channels that work in Dubai
KPI Dashboards — the 8 numbers every owner watches weekly
