Center for Ideas and Credit (abbreviated MAVA in Persian)

The Center for IT Development (abbreviated MAGFA in Persian), affiliated with the Industrial Development and Rehabilitation of Iranian Industries, was established in 2007 with support from Shell Development Iran B.V. as the Representative of Shell Live Wire Network (www.shell-livewire.com) and proceeded with the execution of projects in employment generation as MAVA.
As a center for IT based business development, MAVA, through evaluation of previous experiences developed in MAGFA in “The Center for Development in Research” and “Management of SBDC project” recognized the minor role of effective educational skills, supervision and consulting in formation and sustainability of enterprises as a fundamental challenge in employment generation in Iran.
In order to close the cycle for national employment generation, by relying on professional training based on national and international best practices, the Center intends to take an effective step in empowering individuals with ideas throughout the country and offer consulting, support, and supervision services, through close collaborations in achieving success in development of their respective businesses.
MAVA’s vision to be recognized as the most “Powerful” and “Trustworthy” center for sustainable employment generation is accomplished by offering services in training, consulting, support and supervision. It strives to be the trustworthy safeguard for employment generators and small and medium size business owners by playing a role, however small, in national economic development through employment generation.
