ABOUT THE SELANGOR ACCELERATOR PROGRAMME

The successful Selangor Accelerator Programme (SAP) debuted early 2018, where its startups have gone on to pitch to international VCs, investors and more, as well as participate in the 2018 Selangor International Pitch against 28 other international startups.

The SAP is a free, 4-month free accelerator programme that aims to educate and hone the skills of its early-stage startups so that they are pitching and investor ready by the end of the programme. Packed full of exciting and challenging activities, workshops and field trips, the top 10 from the 2018 batch were flown off to China’s for a field trip and pitching opportunities to leading Tsinghua University, TusPark, Alibaba HQ, and more. The China pitching events were livestreamed and recorded a whopping 1 million concurrent views.

Today, SITEC has been granted the Digital Hub status by MDEC, and will be expanding its popular accelerator programme for 2019 as well.
