Abu Dhabi’s global tech ecosystem, Hub71, has announced a strategic partnership with the UAE-India Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement Council (UICC). This collaboration is set to activate the innovation agenda of the agreement by establishing a dedicated pathway for high-growth Indian startups to enter the Abu Dhabi market, validate their business models, and scale across the MENA region.
A Strategic Bridge to MENA
Through this initiative, Hub71 will support the UICC’s “Start-Up Series” by providing a structured market entry program into the UAE’s capital. The partnership aims to streamline the process for promising Indian tech companies, offering them direct access to the resources and network available within Abu Dhabi’s thriving tech landscape.
The Hub71 Immersion Program
Following the conclusion of the Start-Up Series finals in New Delhi on November 25, Hub71 will onboard the five winning companies into its new Immersion program. This program is specifically designed to accelerate market entry through a blend of virtual-readiness sessions, carefully selected knowledge-sharing workshops, and mentorship. Participants will be deeply integrated into the Abu Dhabi ecosystem, receiving direct connections to key stakeholders and industry leaders.
The Exclusive Access Program
In addition to the Immersion program, Hub71 will select one standout startup from the five winners to join its prestigious Access program. This provides the chosen company with an even more structured and seamless integration into Abu Dhabi’s global tech ecosystem, offering comprehensive support to fast-track its regional growth and development.
