Launch keynote speaker, H.E. Mohammed Al Gergawi, UAE Minister of Cabinet Affairs, reaffirmed the government’s commitment to entrepreneurship and the importance of the AstroLabs Dubai tech hub in this national Year of Innovation. AstroLabs’ public launch introduces a purpose-built 6,500 sqft coworking space designed for entrepreneurs, featuring a Google mobile device lab, five meeting and video conferencing rooms, a training and events facility, and artisanal coffee boutique 59 Degrees. With floor-to-ceiling windows, the ground-level space sits parkside in Dubai’s Jumeirah Lakes Towers district.
Already hosting startups from across 15 industries with founders hailing from 27 countries, AstroLabs Dubai is building a community of entrepreneurs that can scale on a global level. Over 25 percent of Dubai-based members are women leading tech startups, a proportion that rivals the most diverse ecosystems globally.
