The Intelak Accelerator, launched by the Intelak Hub in Dubai, is a growth-stage programme designed to support international start-ups in the aviation, travel, and tourism sectors. It aims to accelerate the scalability of innovative tech solutions that align with Dubai’s strategic priorities, including automation, accessibility, sustainability, and smart infrastructure. Eligible applicants include late-stage start-ups or scale-ups with at least two full-time team members and a product ready for implementation or expansion in Dubai. Selected start-ups receive a grant of AED 50,000, tailored mentorship, and the opportunity to pitch at an investor-focused demo day. The programme supports up to five start-ups per cohort. Applications for the current cycle are open now via the Intelak website and must be submitted by 18 May 2025.
