Google for Startups Accelerator: MENA-T Demo Day (Invite Only)
Join us for the closing event of the Google for Startups Accelerator: MENA-T on the 14th of October, Wednesday.
Over three months of intensive programming, 15 AI-first startups from across the Middle East, North Africa, and Türkiye worked alongside dedicated Google Cloud architects, Site Reliability Engineers, and AI specialists. Through tailored technical success sprints, ranging from multi-agent orchestration and large-scale LLM inference to production-grade Vertex AI deployment and go-to-market strategy, these founders have stress-tested and accelerated their core platforms together with Google.
Hosted on-site at Rixos Tersane Istanbul during Istanbul Ignited by Slush'D, Demo Day gathers an intimate room of institutional investors, venture funds, and technology leaders to see the cohort unveil their products and commercial milestones!
