Tuwaiq Academy, in partnership with the National Technology Development Program (NTDP) Saudi Arabia, has launched a new series of artificial intelligence (AI) product-building bootcamps aimed at developing advanced national capabilities.
The bootcamps will begin in February 2026 and run for ten weeks at the academy’s headquarters in Riyadh. The initiative provides financial and technical support of up to $400,000 (SAR1.5 million) for selected high-performing student products through MVPLAB.
The support is designed by Tuwaiq Academy to strengthen national human capital and accelerate the development of promising Saudi solutions in advanced and emerging technologies.
The bootcamps are designed to empower Saudi national talent by providing a comprehensive environment and the essential tools needed to transform innovative ideas into scalable, investment-ready products. Participants will engage in intensive technology programs held at the Tuwaiq Academy’s headquarters, following a hands-on, experiential learning approach.
This structure allows students and professionals to work closely in collaborative teams, enhancing teamwork and problem-solving skills while gaining practical experience in designing, developing, and refining advanced technological solutions. By participating, attendees will build expertise in creating innovations across a wide range of sectors, preparing them to contribute to the growth of Saudi Arabia’s technology ecosystem and its emerging AI-driven industries.
The bootcamps by Tuwaiq Academy will culminate with the selection of the top-performing products and innovations, which will be showcased to investors, industry experts, and technology specialists.
Selected projects will receive incubation support exceeding $400,000 (SAR1.5 million) through MVPLAB, enabling their growth, scaling, and transition into promising Saudi technology companies. Registration is now open for university graduates and professionals, and interested participants can apply via the academy’s official website.
