Building on the success of its first participation, ZEBOX, the international innovation accelerator of the CMA CGM Group, returns to GITEX 2025 in Dubai with a delegation of 9 promising startups. This year, the selected startups focus on two key themes: decarbonization and safety (of goods, people, and cybersecurity).
From October 12to 15, these startups from ZEBOX’s international Acceleration Program will exhibit their solutions at Expand North Star, the GITEX area dedicated to young and innovative companies. They will benefit from outstanding visibility with 200,000 visitors from around the globe, 1,500 investors, and leading international corporations. This ecosystem offers ZEBOX startups a unique opportunity to connect with decision-makers and build strategic partnerships, particularly in the MENA region.
Founded in 2018 by Rodolphe Saadé, Chairman and CEO of the CMA CGM Group, ZEBOX is an international innovation accelerator that supports nearly 100 startups and scale-ups each year, from more than 30 countries. Its 12-month acceleration program combines strategic mentoring, connections with major corporate partners and industry experts, and access to co-innovation opportunities. By also offering visibility at global events such as VivaTech, CES, and GITEX, ZEBOX positions itself as a catalyst for growth and international expansion for innovative startups.
With this new participation in GITEX Global, ZEBOX reaffirms its mission: providing startups with international visibility and connecting them to key stakeholders of their growth. In Dubai, the accelerator opens doors to investors, corporations, and government stakeholders from the United Arab Emirates, creating the conditions to turn innovation into tangible industrial and commercial projects.
