SRTIP
The Vision: A High-IQ Ecosystem for Global Innovators
Sharjah Research, Technology, and Innovation Park (SRTIP) is the UAE’s flagship “Innovation District.” Founded in 2016, it was built with a single, massive mission: to transform cutting-edge research into market-dominating companies. By bringing together the brightest minds from Sharjah University City and the region’s most ambitious CEOs, SRTIP creates a “Triple Helix” environment where ideas aren’t just born—they are commercialized.
SRTIP is strategically located at the doorstep of University City, Sharjah.

The SRTIP Edge: Why the Best Minds Choose This Park
1. Access to the "SoiLAB" (Sharjah Open Innovation Lab)
Why build your own lab when you can use ours? SRTIP is home to SoiLAB, the region’s most advanced prototyping hub. Founders gain access to industrial-grade 3D printers, laser cutters, and professional CAD software to turn a digital sketch into a physical reality in days.
2. The "Women in Innovation" (WinIn) Initiative
SRTIP is a leader in gender-diverse entrepreneurship. Through the Women in Innovation package, female founders receive subsidized setup rates, private workspaces, and exclusive access to high-level networking events designed to elevate women in the STEM sectors.
3. The Dual-License Capability
One of SRTIP's most powerful secrets is the Dual License. It allows your Free Zone entity to branch into the UAE Mainland without the need for a second office. You get to keep your R&D base in the innovation park while bidding for local government contracts across the entire country.
4. Cost-Efficiency Without Compromise
Despite its high-tech focus, entry remains accessible. Setup packages start as low as AED 5,500 for a trade license, allowing you to establish a world-class UAE corporate presence with minimal upfront capital.
