SiGMA Foundation

Building on the phenomenal success of previous editions, the AIBC Startup Pitch returns to spotlight the most exceptional early-stage ventures. While more than 100 startups will showcase their products and ideas throughout the conference, only the top six, hand-selected by our expert judges, will advance to the live on-stage Pitch during the final leg of the summit. This high-energy competition opens the door to transformative opportunities, from equity investment and mentorship to consultancy, digital marketing support and powerful networking with top-tier VC funds and accelerators. To strengthen your chances of being selected, applicants are encouraged to submit a 3-minute video introduction. For any questions or assistance, please contact Emily.
