The startup has already proven the potential to go to the global markets with its innovative real-time voice AI technology, which we believe Orange Group could find a way to take advantage of. We are looking forward to helping Agara expand the market reach in Asia as well as countries where Orange has operations around the world through the program.” - Hiroshi Nishikawa, Orange Fab Asia Program Manager.

Conducted at 3 locations in Asia with a select group of startups, this experience will enable us to partner with Orange’s corporate partner network in the region.
