During its third edition, the Dubai Future Accelerators (DFA) program secured a partnership agreement with Singularity University, a California-based leader in executive education and leadership. As per the agreement, which was signed on November 24, 2017, the University can benefit from “Golden Tickets” for startups taking part in its accelerator program to apply to Dubai Future Accelerators. DFA, meanwhile, benefits from recruiting innovative international companies to join its program and work on finding breakthrough solutions for the challenges of the future, testing and implementing them in Dubai.

The partnership was announced at the closing ceremony of the Dubai Future Accelerators program’s third round. It stems from the shared core values and key objectives of both programs, which seek to promote entrepreneurship and proactively shape the future. The agreement is set to advance both organizations’ global status, positioning and influence in the tech and startup ecosystem.
