The Go-Together Accelerator, a leading global program for education technology, has officially launched its 24th cohort, featuring a curated group of 20 ambitious startups from across the Middle East, Africa, Europe, Asia, and North America. Supported by DOHE Global, the no-equity, no-fee program aims to strengthen global education systems by equipping early-stage founders with intensive coaching and strategic market access.
Middle Eastern Innovation At The Forefront
The Middle East is strongly represented in this cycle, with three standout startups from the UAE and Egypt joining the prestigious group. These ventures are tackling diverse challenges ranging from early childhood digital literacy to advanced aerospace education and personalized tutoring.
- Codinger (Egypt): A Cairo-based Codinger platform designed for children aged 6 to 18. Launched in 2023, the startup focuses on project-based learning to bridge the digital divide in underserved communities across the MENA region.
- SpacePoint “Space.” (UAE): Headquartered in Abu Dhabi, SpacePoint provides educational satellite development kits (SatKits). The program offers hands-on STEM experience, allowing university and school students to build satellite subsystems from scratch.
- Unitors (UAE): Operating out of Dubai Internet City, Unitors is a peer-to-peer learning platform that connects students with specialized tutors across academia, music, and dance.
A 24-Week Journey Toward Scalable Impact
Led by Program Manager Haewon Rah, Cohort 24 will undergo a rigorous 24-week acceleration process divided into three distinct phases: Selection, Diagnosis, and Acceleration. During the “Diagnosis” phase, each startup receives a thorough evaluation of its business model and founder capabilities to establish a bespoke action plan.
The final 20 weeks of the program are dedicated to achieving these tailored objectives through weekly 1-to-1 coaching sessions. By removing financial barriers such as equity requirements and fees, Go-Together enables these MENA-based founders to focus entirely on product-market fit and educational impact, preparing them for future investment rounds.
Strengthening The Global EdTech Ecosystem
The launch of Cohort 24 reinforces Go-Together’s ambition to accelerate 5,000 EdTech startups over the next decade. By fostering a collaborative ecosystem rather than a competitive one, the program facilitates cross-border knowledge sharing between founders in emerging markets like Egypt and Nigeria and those in established hubs in North America and Europe.
For the participating Arab startups, this global exposure provides a unique opportunity to refine their solutions for international markets while addressing specific regional educational gaps, such as the need for localized Arabic-language STEM content and accessible vocational training.
