The initiative aims to fuel the growth of startups in this niche sector, enhancing their ability to transform the construction industry through technology-driven solutions.
The accelerator programme, named the “Construction-Tech Innovation Accelerator,” is set to provide a unique platform for aspiring entrepreneurs in Egypt’s thriving startup ecosystem.
With construction being a critical sector in the country’s economy, the programme holds the potential to revolutionize traditional processes and bring forth disruptive advancements.
Startups selected for the accelerator will undergo an intensive mentoring and support program, gaining access to Flat6Labs’ extensive network of industry experts, seasoned mentors, and potential investors.
Additionally, the selected startups will receive seed funding to help kickstart their projects and translate their ideas into tangible products or services.
The programme is designed to cater to a wide range of construction-tech innovations, including but not limited to building information modeling (BIM), sustainable construction practices, smart cities solutions, modular construction, and real-time project management platforms.
