In a significant move towards fostering innovation and entrepreneurship, Trusity, the leading skill-tech platform and Dubai SME certified incubator in the UAE, has collaborated with T-Works, India's largest prototyping centre, as an ecosystem partner to launch project-based entrepreneurship programs supporting children and youth in India.

This groundbreaking association serves as the first step for Trusity towards uniting and forming a bridge between both ecosystems to drive youth entrepreneurship, innovation, and technological advancement, equipping young minds with the skills and resources to bring their ideas to life.
