General Questions

What does BOLT actually do?

We design and run innovation programs, startup accelerators, hackathons and bold strategic events. Think of us as your end-to-end partner when you need high energy execution with real outcomes.

Where do you operate?

We're based in the UAE, but we work globally. From Seoul to Riyadh to Amsterdam, we’ve helped partners go from local ideas to global execution.

Do you only work with startups?

Nope. We work with corporates, government entities, accelerators, universities, and ecosystem builders who want to engage startups, innovators or the public in meaningful ways.

Can I hire you just to run an event or hackathon?

Absolutely. We can plug into a specific need (like designing a hackathon challenge or managing an event) or handle the entire thing from idea to impact.

How long do your programs usually run?

Hackathons usually run from 3 days to 2 weeks. Startup programs range from 4 to 12 weeks. Strategic events can be one day or multi-week series. We tailor timelines to what delivers real value.

What makes BOLT different?

We’re fast, multilingual, and grounded in the details. We bring startup speed with enterprise polish. And our team is built for agile execution - on ground, across borders, and under pressure.

Do you offer mentorship or training?

Yes. For startups, students, and even internal teams. We often build mentorship tracks, training workshops and coaching into our programs.

How soon should I reach out before launching a program?

The earlier the better, ideally 6 to 8 weeks in advance. But if you're in a crunch, reach out anyway. We’ve pulled off complex builds on tight timelines (with caffeine and good playlists).

Do you handle marketing or outreach?

We’re not a marketing agency but we do build the strategy behind the scenes. Our team designs the campaign schedule, tone, messaging, and even content when needed. We work closely with PR and ad agencies to make sure everything feels on brand, high energy and well timed.

What types of startups do you work with?

It depends on the focus - sustainability tech, AI, gaming, fintech, transport, you name it. We’ve worked across sectors and helped founders at MVP, scale up and market entry stages.
