Inspired by existing events that provide the launching platform for the startups (like TechCrunch 50 and DEMO). ArabCrunch brings ArabCrunch DEMO 09 in collaboration with DART to provide the same launching grounds for Arab startups. In a press release Gaith Saqer, founder and editor of ArabCrunch highlighted the motive behind the event:

Unlike their western counter parts, Arab tech entrepreneurs and startups face many difficulties, such as lack of funding and marketing support. We are creating a platform to help them overcome those difficulties. The platform will allow the early-stage, and mostly unfunded innovative companies to take center stage and demo in front of fellow entrepreneurs, CEOs, venture capitalists, IT professionals, IT students, media, advertising agencies, and early tech adapters. We chose these startups based purely on their innovation, without regard to their own financial resources. We try to help those startups thrive and succeed, as for the established ones, we help them gain further market momentum.

The event is set to take place at Friendship auditorium Princess Sumaya University of Technology, Amman, Sudan Jordan. There will be no charges for attendance (previous pre-approval required). Those of you interested can register at ArabCrunch DEMO 09.
