Finding Asia’s Best New Air Transport Startup
FTE APEX Asia Expo+ 2021 will unearth Asia’s most exciting air transport industry startup through a new competition powered by the FTE Innovation & Startup Hub.
NEW for 2021
Here at Future Travel Experience we believe startups have an important role to play in reimagining the future of air travel, which is why we are passionate about discovering the best of the best and providing a platform for them to spread the word about their pioneering products and services.
Working in close collaboration with the FTE Innovation & Startup Hub we have launched a Startup Competition & Showcase for FTE APEX Asia Expo+ 2021. Eight Asia-based startups will be selected to exhibit in the Startup Showcase and one will be crowned “Asia’s Best New Air Transport Startup” at the show. The competition is designed to help discover new startups whose solutions can help improve end-to-end customer experiences and business performance for air transport industry stakeholders, especially airlines and airports.
Eligibility
The competition is open to any startup that is a member of the FTE Innovation & Startup Hub, Series A or earlier, headquartered in Asia, and founded within the last five years.
Please note, the FTE Innovation & Startup Hub is free to join for startups. Any startup that enters the competition but is not already a member of the FTE Innovation & Startup Hub will have a free profile created on their behalf.
Prizes
Eight startups will be selected to exhibit in the Startup Showcase at FTE APEX Asia Expo+ 2021, Asia’s biggest free to attend passenger experience and business performance expo. This includes free entrance into the show, an opportunity to pitch to attendees, and an exhibition booth in the Startup Showcase. One startup will be crowned the overall winner during the show. Full event details can be found here: www.futuretravelexperience.com/fteasia/
Any startup that enters the competition and meets the entry requirements but is not selected as one of the eight finalists will be entitled to a discounted exhibition package or discounted Premium Delegate Pass.
Judging
The eight startup finalists will be selected by a panel of judges from the FTE Advisory Board and the Future Travel Experience team. The judges will be looking for startups based in Asia that have the potential to significantly improve end-to-end passenger experiences and business performance for air transport industry stakeholders (such as airlines and airports).
The overall winner will be chosen by an attendees’ vote at FTE APEX Asia Expo+ 2021, and the winner will be announced at the FTE APEX Asia Expo+ ceremony on Tuesday 10 November.
