McDonald’s UAE announced its contribution of Dh1 million to the Mothers’ Endowment campaign, launched by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai. The campaign honours mothers and strengthens the nation’s humanitarian efforts by providing educational support to millions globally.

Drawing inspiration from the pivotal role of mothers as invaluable mentors to the younger generation, the campaign pays tribute to their enduring influence and guidance with an objective to raise a fund of Dh1 billion.

McDonald’s UAE’s contribution to the campaign is part of broader initiatives aimed at uplifting and supporting the community. This donation aligns with the company’s ongoing efforts and coincides with the Ramadan donation platform, supporting Emirates Red Crescent humanitarian aid efforts.

Walid Fakih, CEO at McDonald’s UAE, said: “Contributing to the Mothers’ Endowment campaign and its values, along with the tangible positive outcomes of the fund aligns with our commitment as a responsible corporate citizen. This donation reflects our enduring dedication to education and empowerment, reflecting seamlessly with our core values.”

The Mothers’ Endowment campaign also draws inspiration from the vision of Sheikh Mohammed, which aims to foster sustainable charity and humanitarian efforts within a comprehensive institutional framework, emphasising the crucial role of education in improving quality of life and promoting development.

New Delhi, 13 October : India’s fintech sector raised $2.2 billion in the first nine months of 2026 (January 1, 2026–September 30, 2026), up 14 per cent from $1.9 billion in the same period a year earlier, a report said. The report from data intelligence platform Tracxn Technologies Limited said funding rounds dipped from 260 to 153, adding that the funding was concentrated in a smaller number of large late‑stage rounds, with five mega‑rounds of $100 million or more accounting for $1.1 billion or 48 per cent of total capital. The report said in the first nine months of 2026, digital lending and payments topped the category rankings, while Bengaluru accounts for over three-fifths of all capital raised. On the exit side, IPOs saw a 50 per cent uptick while overall acquisitions slowed. As many as 30 companies raised their first funding round, down 49 per cent from 59 in the previous year. Series A and later rounds totalled 77, down 31 per cent from 112. Late-stage funding (Series C+, PE, and pre-IPO) led the mix, rising 95 per cent to $1.5 billion in the first nine months of 2026 — up from $751 million during the same period in the previous year. This capital surge pushed late-stage investments to 67 per cent of total market funding, the report noted. Earlier stages experienced contractions in capital and deal counts. Early-stage funding fell 33 per cent to $668 million across 52 rounds, compared to $1 billion across 82 rounds in nine months of 2025. Seed funding fell 57 per cent to $73.8 million across 76 rounds, down from $173 million across 148 rounds. New unicorns crossed the billion-dollar threshold in an average of 7.1 years after their Series A funding. Moreover, the industry saw 3 IPOs in nine months of 2026, up 50 per cent from 2 in the previous year, alongside 11 acquisitions, down 45 per cent from 20.
