Scheduled to run from April 20 - 30, selected participants are required to attend the full duration of the sprint accelerator. Startups will have access to a series of free mentorship sessions with leading global experts from prominent organizations including UC Berkley, HAX, and NYU Shanghai, in addition to trainers from startAD and the program’s partners.

Venture Launchpad will end with the Showcase Day, where startups will present their ventures to matched investors and members of the UAE entrepreneurship ecosystem. The winning startup will receive the IMKAN Innovation Award worth $10,000 USD. Meanwhile, all of the accelerator’s selected startups will have the opportunity to secure pilot projects with the program’s partners.

“The global Engineering and Construction industry, worth more than $10 trillion per year continues to play ‘catch up’ when it comes to digitalization. There is a total of 4,000 active projects worth an estimated $313.6 billion underway currently in the country, making UAE uniquely poised to lead the digitalization of the sector globally," said Research Professor of Engineering, Vice Provost for Entrepreneurship, and Managing Director of StartAD Ramesh Jagannathan.
