Global startup movement

Dubai hosted the launch of the world’s first, most global, week-long startup showcase. Held in response to the need for an industry hub for investors, incubators, and accelerators to identify the world’s next great startups and support youth empowerment, the new GITEX Global Startup Movement is a comprehensive and dynamic technology platform that will promote global knowledge exchange, foster economic growth and encourage startup investment in the region. The GITEX Global Startup Movement is furthering this growth by providing unique access for international investors to the region’s emerging startup market, supporting diverse employment opportunities among youth, women in technology and local talent, and developing a culture of entrepreneurship in the region.
