Creators HQ & Alfan Launch USD 1.36 Million Content Fund in UAE

Creators HQ, a UAE-based platform focused on supporting digital creators, has opened applications for a Social Content Fund in partnership with Alfan, a company specialising in creator monetisation and distribution tools, allocating USD 1.36 million (AED 5 million) to support content creators.
The programme will select 50 creators, each receiving funding alongside access to production tools, studio facilities, training programmes, and brand partnerships. Applications are open until May 10th, with results scheduled to be announced at the 1 Billion Followers Summit in 2027.
The initiative focuses on content across education, edutainment, health, animation, and human-interest storytelling. Participants will be given access to production infrastructure and workshops led by content strategy specialists, in addition to one year of access to Alfan’s platform.
The programme also aims to support distribution and monetisation by connecting creators with social media platforms and content-focused brands.
According to Creators HQ, the fund builds on a partnership introduced earlier this year and moves into implementation with a defined cohort, funding pool, and timeline. The selected group will receive structured support spanning production, training, and brand integration.
Eligibility requirements include a minimum of 100,000 YouTube subscribers, consistent production quality, and a clear content development roadmap. The programme also offers relocation support and Golden Visa incentives for selected participants.
