The FII Institute has officially opened its call for the FII Innovators Pitch, seeking visionaries who can leverage artificial intelligence and technology to tackle the world’s most pressing challenges.
The initiative focuses on transforming critical sectors, including climate change, healthcare, robotics, and education.
With nearly half of all global funding flowing into the artificial intelligence sector in 2025, the institute believes now is the time to turn ambitious ideas into real-world solutions.
The goal is to support innovations that can scale effectively and leave a lasting positive impact on humanity.
The search is concentrated on four core areas: Sustainability, Health, Robotics, and Education.
Whether it is accelerating discovery timelines for biological solutions or personalizing instruction for students in under-resourced communities, the program prioritizes measurable progress.
Funding and benefits
Successful applicants will earn the prestigious opportunity to pitch their solutions live on stage at the 10th edition of the Future Investment Initiative (FII10) in Riyadh.
This platform provides direct visibility to the FII Investment Community, consisting of the world’s most influential change makers.
Participants will also be invited to join exclusive masterclasses and programming specifically designed to expand their professional expertise.
These sessions aim to help innovators refine their strategies and navigate the complexities of global scaling.
Furthermore, selected innovators receive a complimentary FII Institute Membership.
This grant offers privileged access to the broader FII ecosystem, facilitating connections that can help bridge the gap between a concept and a global standard.
Application requirements and eligibility
The program is looking for tech-enabled solutions that address systemic barriers and improve human lives.
For example, robotics solutions must demonstrate a clear social or economic impact, while healthcare innovations should aim to reach underserved populations.
Ideal candidates are those developing the next generation of breakthroughs, such as energy-efficient AI infrastructure or inclusive algorithms.
The FII Institute emphasizes the importance of building technology that serves a diverse global population and creates new pathways for economic growth.
Deadline
The challenge is currently open for submissions, but the window for entry is limited. All applications must be submitted by the closing date of May 28, 2026.
Following the deadline, finalists will be selected in July 2026, with the final winners announced during the FII10 event in Riyadh this October.
