Overview
SCALE7’s Pre-Acceleration Program helps MVP-ready creative and cultural industry startups establish product-market fit and a go-to-market plan in Qatar. It combines product validation, structured customer discovery, early traction development, and investment preparation. Participants prepare a pitch for the Cultural and Creative Industries Hub committee, with a potential milestone-based equity investment. Selection for capital is separate from participation and is not guaranteed.
Who it is for
MVP ready for customer testing, early users and pre-revenue stage, at least one team member fully committed, and a business in a SCALE7 sub-sector. The company must be established or plan to establish as a Qatari entity during the program. Exact eligible creative sub-sectors should be confirmed against the current call.
