Applications open for QSTP flagship accelerator programme – The Peninsula Qatar

Doha: Qatar Science & Technology Park (QSTP), part of Qatar Foundation Research, Development & Innovation (QF RDI), has announced that applications for the latest edition of its XLR8 programme are now open, and that it will be awarding funding for up to three winning teams upon completion.

Applications are open from October 20 to November 13, with the programme running from November 23, 2021 to March 23, 2022.

QSTP’s flagship accelerator programme, XLR8, now in its 12th cycle, has been revamped. Not only will the programme award financial support to the winners, but it has also added a new, value-added ‘Ideation Module’ as part of the training. Under this module, participants will conduct customer interviews to improve or pivot their original idea based on real customer feedback, a vital practice in the process of creating an impactful business.
