All I can say that in my seven years in the Emirates, SW Dubai was without a doubt the most energizing and innovative event I have seen to inspire and support budding entrepreneurs. From the organization to the mentors, attitude to the food, awesome. Well done!! Thanks for the opportunity to attend.

The Startup Weekend experience was truly one of a kind. Spending 54 hours working on our business and actually launching it was something that really benefitted us. I would love to participate again and again.

Events such as Startup Weekend are very important for Dubai and the UAE, It nurtures local talent, gives them a platform to demonstrate their ideas and secure funding, and most importantly provides a boost to the economy.

Startup Weekend Dubai was the most thrilling event I have ever attended in the UAE. I loved the energy, the enthusiasm, the spirit. With MindTalk, who won last year's

Most Innovative prize from Khalifa Fund, we are still going strong after six months, preparing for a launch of activities.
