The National Incubator Network is a community of practice that supports incubators, accelerators, government organizations, startups, mentors, investors, and anybody that aims to contribute to the UAE startup eco-system. We sponsor this initiative to facilitate the sharing of knowledge and best practice among business incubators in the UAE. Key components of the initiative include:

• Information sharing facilitation: Making it easy to find information that is usually scattered across the eco-system, this includes information about business setup, listing of events and programs that could be relevant as well as best practices and guidelines across multiple areas.
• Startup community engagement: Providing a space for members to connect, exchange and share knowledge in a safe and open environment. For example, there is a focus on Emirati Women in Tech, as well as an Emirati Wingman Mentoring program where early-stage Emirati Startups get matched with Emirati Business Leaders.
• Learning forums: Providing a knowledge base and discussion forums that are curated to speed-up learning and get answers to founder questions in no time. Additionally provides free access to directories and listings enabling fast and open communication throughout the ecosystem.
