Partners

Partner with The Innovation Races.

Partners get structured access to Saudi Arabia's most rigorously assessed deep tech pipeline across both races, co-branding throughout the programme, and a defined commercial relationship, not a logo on a banner. There are two ways to partner, each shaped around a different mandate.

What partnership means

Partnership with The Innovation Races is a defined commercial relationship. Partners span both races: they fund free assessment access in The Qualifying Races and gain structured access to the Championship Races cohort.

Every supporter of the programme is a Partner.

Two ways to partner

One programme, two mandates.

  • First look at deployable innovation, matched to your priorities
