AIM Startup 2019 is gathering the best and the most innovative startups based in MENA through a series of roadshows. These two-day roadshows feature a workshop and a pitch competition on the first and second day, respectively. At least 15 startups are expected to participate per location where 5 will be selected to advance to AIM Startup 2019 Annual Pitch Competition. Exhibition fee will also be waived for startups who will be selected during the roadshow and they will have an opportunity to compete for the USD 50,000 pool prize in April in Dubai.

Under the theme “Harnessing Global Digitization to Empower Startups and SMEs”, AIM Startup 2019 will gather together startups, incubators, accelerators, investors, policy-makers, corporate representatives, consultants, intellectual property law experts, financial institutions, SMEs and solution providers. Last year’s AIM Startup saw an increase in the number of participating companies looking to raise capitals, expand into new markets, or forge meaningful business relationships.

AIM Startup 2019 roadshow kicked off in Jordan on December 2-3, 2018 with The Tank by Umniah as partner; Cubical Services hosted the competition in Kuwait on December 11-12, 2018; and Bahraini top entrepreneurs are expected on December 23-24, 2018 at Riyadat Mall.
