"The program brought tremendous value and opened the doors to a whole new market (GCC) to my company. In a couple days we made meaningful connections which led to real partnerships which we are currently establishing. The structured events were also eye opening and allowed me to much better understand how business should be done in the MENA region. Last but not least, the quality of the companies and founders involved was tremendous, and a lot of tips and knowledge was shared."

"The week far exceeded my expectations. We were able to not only connect with new investors, but also gain incredible insights and connections from other startups within the collective."

"The Crimson Collective gave us an unfair advantage to connect with some of the leaders in the region. They shared market insights specific to the impact of AI and intelligence on the willingness to adopt new solutions. We were also able to connect with some of the prominent investors in the region, one of which happens to be a sovereign wealth fund. We are hoping to announce some good news in the coming weeks. Thanks again to the Crimson Collective!"
