Alibaba Cloud x KrASIA Global Startup Accelerator

Demo Day is a program for startups to gain a spot on Alibaba Cloud’s radar and even join the Global Startup Accelerator. 

During its annual summit on June 8, 2021, Alibaba Cloud announced its new Project AsiaForward initiative to bring digital transformation to enterprises in Asia and nurture fresh talent. Alibaba Cloud also shared its plans to invest USD 1 billion across six Southeast Asian markets, Hong Kong, and Taiwan, within the next three years.

As part of Project AsiaForward, Alibaba Cloud will launch the Global Startup Accelerator with KrASIA. A series of Demo Days will be held, presenting startups the chance to be selected for the program and become part of Alibaba Cloud’s global ecosystem.

The Alibaba Cloud x KrASIA Global Startup Accelerator brings together new technologists, venture capitalists, and other ecosystem players across Asia to identify startups that are compatible with Alibaba’s ecosystem.

Alibaba Cloud welcomes startups from any country, industry, and operating at any stage.
