It Was a Long Road, But Four New Startups Are Now Flying
Summary
It was a long road – with many twists and learnings – for four Dubai-based startups committed to radically transforming aviation, travel and tourism. But on April 30, 2018, they successfully graduated from the Intelak incubator in Dubai having moved their ideas from mere seeds into full-fledged business plans. The day was both their graduation from the three-month Intelak program and an opportunity to pitch their innovative ideas during an Investor Pitch evening, attended not only by Intelak’s principal partners: the Emirates Group, GE and Dubai Tourism (the Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing), but also local and regional investors. Not only did they participate in a one-week boot camp for 20 shortlisted groups in February, but they also have just completed three months of intensive mentoring and startup support at DTEC.
