๐ Iโm excited to announce my involvement as a Mentor and Startup Advisor with the Ignyte platform, part of and supported by the Dubai Government. This incredible initiative brings together a world-class network of local and international mentors, offering startups the guidance and resources they need to scale both in the UAE and globally.
Having spent the last few years immersed in the UAEโs thriving startup and investor ecosystems, Iโve witnessed firsthand the regionโs commitment to innovation and global talent attraction. Through my โoffice hoursโ with startups, Iโve been impressed by the caliber of founders and the bold vision the UAE is implementing to establish itself as a global hub for entrepreneurship.
The Ignyte program stands out not only for its mentorship opportunities but also for its ability to connect startups with valuable corporate partnerships and real deal flow. Itโs an honor to play a part in fostering this ecosystem and helping founders navigate their journey to success.
Special thanks to Ammar Bakhshy DIFC Carmel Ellis Varun Mohan Olivet Gracia Khapiah for their insights and guidance, which led me to Ignyte.
As someone whoโs been involved in the Dubai startup scene since 2014, Iโm confident that platforms like Ignyte will not only continue to serve as a bridge for global talent entering the UAE but also help local startups expand internationally.
Looking forward to helping founders scale, innovate, and make an impact in the region and beyond!
