Good to know

Your questions, answered.

Can an existing SME or a student founder join?

AIOS is curated for operating, revenue-generating businesses, normally with at least three months of revenue history and a paying customer. Pre-revenue ventures can use Tech Hub learning and support services or an approved programme that explicitly allows sponsored exceptions.

Is a service enquiry a confirmed booking or payment?

No. Availability, pricing, bookings and support arrangements are confirmed by the team. This page does not collect payments or promise funding.

What happens to my information?

Platform participation submissions are shared with authorised hub staff and are not published as a contact directory. Enquiry messages are sent through the communication app you choose. Share referrals only with their permission.

Do cloud programmes guarantee credits or benefits?

No. Tech Hub helps with preparation and readiness. Provider programmes such as AWS Activate apply their own eligibility checks and approval requirements; credit amounts and access are not guaranteed.

How can an institution work with Tech Hub?

Propose training, research, founder scouting, sponsorship, an innovation challenge, a sector programme or applied pilots. Start through the partner pathway or contact the team with your objectives.

How do I sell on the Digital Mall?

Use the Digital Mall enquiry route to discuss your products, seller onboarding, promotion and payment or collection arrangements. You can also visit the existing store through the Digital Mall service link.
