Incubator and accelerator

We build, scale and invest in ventures solving sustainability problems.

Bedayat is a Dubai SME certified incubator and accelerator, aligned to the UAE Net Zero by 2050 initiative. Founders get funding routes, mentors and a working city district to prove a concept in.

Three programmes

Pick by whether you are building, partnering or investing.

Sustainability Unicorn Program: The core incubator cohort, for startups working on social, environmental and economic sustainability challenges.
Bespoke Sustainability Unicorn Program: The same machinery run for a corporate partner who wants a cohort built around their own supply chain or sector.
Investor Program: For angel, seed and growth investors who want structured access to the pipeline rather than a cold inbox.

What Bedayat provides

Grants and funding access: Introductions to the funding routes that exist in this market, which are not the ones described in most accelerator playbooks.
The living lab: Proof of concept inside a functioning city district, with real residents, real infrastructure and real data. Most startups cannot buy access to that.
Networks that convert: Mentors, industry partners, academic institutions and government entities, brought together because a sustainability startup usually needs all four.
Dubai SME certification: Bedayat is a certified business incubator and accelerator, which matters for the funding and procurement doors it can open.

Founders working at the Bedayat incubator

Startups that have proved something.

Bedayat companies come out of the programme with measurements from a real deployment, not a forecast. That is the whole point of running an incubator inside a working city district.

Its own brand, its own space.

Bedayat runs as a distinct programme with its own team, its own contact routes and its own investor networks, inside the institute's building and ecosystem.

Bedayat runs on introductions.

Whether you are building something, funding something, or want a cohort built around your sector, the conversation starts the same way.
