What it takes to win outside of the U.S. - @samantha_bohbot detailed the importance of regional culture, highlighting how the celebration of risk-taking in Silicon Valley was a key driver behind the area's boom. Today, the UAE has the opportunity to achieve a similar movement by: • Creating an ecosystem for their national champions, like digital assets, that encourages focus on those key sectors. • Not just mentoring founders, getting them their first customers, connecting them to other startups, creating a framework for growth and collaboration. • Helping standout teams go global early. • Not forgetting the unglamourous things that make a big difference - incentive systems for top-tier talent, regulatory progress, and making it clear how to work together with government, banks, etc.
