Share this article

The Seedstars MENA Regional Summit, hosted under the Patronage of the Prime Minister's Office, is taking place in Beirut, Lebanon on the 29th of November 2018. The event marks the end of Seedstars’ tour across 15 ecosystems in MENA, and all winners from across the region will be joining.

Seedstars is bringing together active investors, top corporates, digital government actors, tech and business media, and ambitious entrepreneurs from MENA, Europe, and the US. They will take part in Seedstars’ intensive program which includes bootcamps, investor forums, workshops, disruptive panels, and the Beyond Banking Hackathon by Bank Audi.

The Hackathon, taking place prior to the Summit starting on November 27 2018 at Antwork, Hamra, is designed to provide participants from various backgrounds (data scientists, finance enthusiasts, software developers, marketers, designers, business developers, etc.) with superior experiential education.

Interested innovators can apply for the hackathon on Seedstars’ website until November 20 2018. Afterwards, shortlisted applicants will be asked to participate in the hackathon which will end with them pitching during the Regional Summit in front of 300+ attendees and a carefully selected jury.

The winning team will receive a $5,000 cash prize from Bank Audi and the chance to work closely with the bank to implement their solution.
