A week ago, from October 10 – 14, 2022, the Digital Hub Initiative presented the German start-up ecosystem in Dubai for the first time at North Star, the start-up fair of GITEX GLOBAL. The teams Feelbelt, Klangchat and yoona.ai from the MediaTech Hub Potsdam were there and were able to present themselves alongside leading technology companies from the Middle East, Asia and Africa. We are happy for our teams for this unique experience.
Highlights: Supernova Challenge, Matchmaking and new acquaintances
At the pitch competition “Supernova Challenge”, Klangchat was one of the finalists in the Blockchain category. We congratulate the team on this great success! The Supernova Challenge is the largest pitch competition in the Middle East, Africa and South Asia.
Other highlights included attending a matchmaking event organised by the German-Emirati Chamber of Industry and Commerce (AHK), on the 73rd! floor, as well as welcoming the Private Office of Sheikh in Ahmed Al Maktoum to the Digital Hub Initiative stand.
