Kernel Camp Showcase
Kernel Camp is built on two ideas.
Firstly, that the Middle East and North Africa region produces founders who can compete globally. And secondly, that world-class founders need to spend time building here in Silicon Valley.
We are hosting a half-day showcase to close out the inaugural cohort.
The agenda:
→ Mona Ahmad (Reevo) will moderate a panel discussion on tech talent from the MENA region inside SF-based startups with Ahmed Rashad (Perle AI) and Ahmad Saeddedin (Corgea YC S23)
→ Live pitches from the five Kernel Camp startups (full details below)
→ Sujude Dalieh (Replit) will moderate fireside chat with with Waseem Alshikh, CTO and Co-Founder of Writer
→ Lunch and mingling with the cohort, guests, and the broader Kernel Camp and Propeller community
