Behind every pitch was a team that had spent the bootcamp building, questioning, refining, and developing its solution.

Six teams representing EdTech, HealthTech, AgriTech, GreenTech, Tourism & Hospitality, and FinTech took their work to the PitchFest stage, presenting start-up solutions developed through teamwork, design thinking, mentorship, and entrepreneurial problem-solving.

Each team approached a different challenge, but all six shared the same goal: turning an identified problem into a solution with the potential to move forward.

Congratulations to every CAPAi 2026 team for the work, commitment, and determination behind the pitch.

Six teams. Six start-up solutions. One PitchFest.

A day that brought innovation, entrepreneurship, and emerging talent to one stage.

The CAPAi Innovation Challenge Bootcamp 2026 PitchFest brought together participants, judges, mentors, partners, and guests to witness six teams present start-up solutions developed in response to real-world challenges.

From the pitches and conversations to the recognition of this year’s winning teams, PitchFest marked an important milestone in a process shaped by design thinking, collaboration, mentorship, and entrepreneurial development.

A look back at some of the moments that defined PitchFest 2026.

ڕۆژەک کو داهێنان، کارزانی، و شیانێن نوو ل سەر ئێک کۆڕەک ئستەیج کۆمکرن.

Six teams stepped onto the PitchFest stage with more than ideas—they came with start-up solutions built to respond to real challenges.

Today marked the CAPAi Innovation Challenge Bootcamp 2026 PitchFest, bringing together weeks of design thinking, teamwork, mentorship, and entrepreneurial development as six teams presented their start-up solutions before a distinguished panel of judges.

Congratulations to AgriTech, awarded First Place, Tourism & Hospitality in Second Place, and HealthTech in Third Place.

PitchFest concludes the bootcamp, but not the journey. The next stage continues with Impact Hub Duhok, where selected start-ups will move forward through incubation, mentorship, and further development—taking their solutions beyond the pitch and closer to real-world implementation.

Congratulations to all six teams for the commitment, creativity, and determination they brought to CAPAi 2026—and thank you to our judges, coaches, mentors, partners, and everyone who contributed to making this year’s PitchFest possible.

Every great innovation starts with an idea.

At the CAPAi Innovation Challenge Bootcamp 2026, Sada spoke with Dr. Azad Najar about his journey in developing innovative artificial heart technology what inspired him to begin and what kept him going.

A powerful reminder that innovation starts with an idea, but impact comes from persistence.
