Introduction to the Collaboration
In an exciting new development for the tech community, Presight, a prominent global player in AI and big data analytics, has teamed up with the Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC). This partnership marks a significant milestone as Presight becomes the official partner for the Presight AI-Startup Accelerator Program, which aims to nurture and empower emerging AI startups.
Goals of the Partnership
Through this collaboration, both Presight and DWTC plan to leverage the global visibility and reach of GITEX events to enhance the Presight AI-Startup Accelerator. This initiative offers AI founders a robust platform equipped with essential resources, mentorship, and opportunities for commercial growth. As part of this initiative, Presight seeks to reinforce its role in the international AI startup ecosystem, particularly by supporting founders committed to creating applied intelligence solutions that deliver tangible benefits.
Launch of the Accelerator Program
The Presight AI-Startup Accelerator was inaugurated during the Expand North Star 2024 event, establishing it as the first dedicated AI acceleration program in the UAE. This innovative program is designed to help AI startups scale rapidly by providing access to Presight’s extensive technical knowledge, industry partnerships, and customer networks. The inaugural group of startups, showcased at Expand North Star 2025, included ten promising companies from around the world, all focused on developing impactful AI solutions.
Perspectives from Leadership
Thomas Pramotedham, CEO of Presight, commented on the partnership’s significance, stating, “DWTC’s events and global reach position them as a pivotal platform for tech and startup engagement through GITEX GLOBAL and Expand North Star. This partnership allows us to broaden the Presight AI-Startup Accelerator’s international influence and connect visionary entrepreneurs with a global innovation ecosystem. Together, we are paving the way for AI startups to access the resources, visibility, and networks necessary to turn innovative ideas into reality.”
Connecting Startups and Investors
The partnership also focuses on creating initiatives that link AI startups to investors, government bodies, and industry leaders. By utilizing DWTC’s extensive global innovation platforms, including GITEX GLOBAL, this collaboration aims to amplify international engagement within Presight’s accelerator program. Startups will benefit from access to DWTC’s network, which includes founders, investors, and ecosystem partners, facilitating technology showcases and enabling their entry into new markets.
Empowering Tech Entrepreneurs
Trixie LohMirmand, Executive Vice President of DWTC, expressed her enthusiasm about this partnership, stating, “At GITEX GLOBAL and Expand North Star, we have always championed collaboration as vital for advancing AI economies. Partnering with Presight showcases our mutual commitment to empowering tech entrepreneurs with unrestricted access to global investment and growth opportunities, buoyed by GITEX’s vast network of industry leaders and investors across various continents.”
Strengthening Global Collaborations
This partnership adds to a series of collaborations that Presight has initiated with leading global entities, including Microsoft and Mohamed bin Zayed University of Artificial Intelligence (MBZUAI). These collaborations enhance the AI-Startup Accelerator by providing deep technical expertise, mentorship, and crucial AI infrastructure. Through such initiatives, Presight cements its position as a catalyst for innovation, helping AI startups translate ambitious ideas into scalable, market-ready applications that yield positive economic and social benefits.
Future Opportunities for Startups
Following the success of the initial cohort, Presight invites startups participating in Expand North Star to visit the Presight stand (H8-B110) for more information about the accelerator program.
