Creators HQ and Amazon Ads have launched the Amazon Creators Foundry, a regional initiative designed to help 20 UAE-based content creators transform their online influence into scalable e-commerce businesses. The program aims to support creators who already possess products or an existing retail presence, helping them establish and expand storefronts on Amazon.ae.

Selected participants will receive comprehensive support, including dedicated account management, assistance with product listing and discoverability, and over $100,000 in advertising incentives per creator. A key feature of the program is access to Amazon’s international selling infrastructure, allowing creators to reach global markets across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and the Asia-Pacific region.

Applications for the program are open from August 26, 2026, through September 9, 2026. A shortlist will be selected by September 30, with the final cohort expected to be announced in October.
