CertiK lands Hub71 partnership to support UAE's web3 startups

CertiK, a Web3 security services provider, has announced that it has been selected as an official vendor for Hub71, the technology ecosystem based in Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM).

Through the partnership, Hub71 portfolio companies will receive preferred access to CertiK's security and compliance services as they develop and expand their businesses.

As part of the agreement, eligible Hub71 portfolio companies will receive a 20% discount on CertiK's services, supported by a subsidy pool of up to $200,000.

Participating startups will also receive free access to the CertiK Compliance Tool, which is designed to help companies manage licensing applications, including those with the ADGM Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA) and the UAE Central Bank, as well as ongoing regulatory compliance.

According to CertiK, the partnership comes as digital asset regulation in the UAE and other markets continues to evolve, increasing the importance of licensing, anti-money laundering (AML) compliance, and smart contract security for early-stage companies.

Under the partnership, Hub71 portfolio companies will have access to CertiK's services, including smart contract audits, penetration testing, ongoing security monitoring, and compliance support.

The CertiK Compliance Tool is also designed to help companies manage regulatory requirements across multiple jurisdictions as they expand internationally.

According to the companies, the partnership is intended to provide Hub71 startups with greater access to security and compliance resources while supporting CertiK's efforts to expand its role in digital asset ecosystems.
