GAZA SKY GEEKS
Gaza Sky Geeks (GSG) is the first and only startup accelerator in Gaza. They identify the top startups in Gaza, provide them with seed investment, and connect them to mentors, trainers, investors, and other resources to help them achieve global growth. They typically work with startups that have already begun developing or testing a concept. With the support of their acceleration program, startup co-founders take their prototype and turn it into an early-stage company.
