The Q RISING Talent Incubator is dedicated to supporting emerging fashion brands and nurturing new talent with main focus on the Global South by amplifying their voices with strategic acumen.

Every three years, the incubator offers select designers three years of funding, equivalent to six seasons, along with an additional seven years of mentoring, fostering a comprehensive and sustainable path to success.

Over the course of the mentorship, designers will have access to Qasimi's resources, including a co-working space and studio, as well as production, product development, merchandising, marketing, and business function support from a network of industry leaders, all aimed at nurturing and preparing the fashion leaders of the future.

The next round of applications will open in the summer of 2025. Stay tuned...
