StartupSBA Hackathon,

About the event

Our hackathon is an extraordinary platform where innovation meets inspiration. It's an immersive experience that transcends the conventional boundaries of problem-solving. It is a 2-3 day competition and networking event where students from universities across the UAE will work together in groups to pitch their business ideas, and a panel of judges will choose the winners who will receive a prestigious award. On the last day, there is a netwoking event by the name of "mentor mixer" where students can talk to and possibly receive internships and advice from experienced mentors.

Why should you sponsor?

By sponsoring our hackathon, you are actively supporting innovation. You're not just investing in an event; you're investing in the future. The solutions that emerge have the potential to disrupt industries, improve lives, and create new opportunities. Sponsoring our event showcases your company as leadership and innovation-centered as you are facilitating the creation of a platform for youth to drive positive chnage. Additionally, it is an oppotunity to connect with and attract talent, as the students attending and participating in the event are out-of-the-box thinkers. It's a recruiting ground for those who share your organization's vision. Finally, your brand will be well promoted in the event and thoroughout our social media which would reach a wide demographic and generate buzz both during and after the event, and you could access a network of innovators and professionals, creating opportunities for partnerships and collaborations that extend beyond the event.
