Dr. Bayan Sharif, the Provost at Khalifa University, said the program will teach students how to build successful businesses. It will also give them skills to succeed in their studies and turn their ideas into businesses that can help the UAE grow. Students will have a chance to pitch their business ideas to investors and get feedback.

Hitendra Chaturvedi, a leader at ASU, said that ASU is known for being the top university in innovation for ten years. He believes this program will help students become leaders who can solve problems and succeed in the future.

Students will spend some time studying at ASU and then return to Khalifa University to finish their studies. Teachers from both universities will guide the students and help them with their projects.
