Reinforcing its commitment to innovation and entrepreneurship, Cloud Solutions International successfully hosted Spark Tank: The Final Pitch, the grand finale of its flagship intrapreneurship programme designed to transform employee ideas into impactful healthcare ventures.
Spark Tank is a structured innovation journey that empowers employees to think and act like entrepreneurs. The programme guides participants through multiple stages, including idea generation, validation and business case development, culminating in a high-energy live pitching event inspired by the popular Shark Tank format.
During The Final Pitch, shortlisted teams presented refined, investment-ready healthcare solutions before a distinguished panel of evaluators. Hosted at the company’s premises, the event featured an engaging setup with healthcare-themed visuals, creating a competitive yet celebratory atmosphere.
To ensure global participation, the event was live-streamed to teams in Saudi Arabia using dual video feeds, one capturing the presenters on stage and another showcasing presentations and product demonstrations, highlighting the organisation’s culture of cross-border collaboration.
Asiri Liyanage, Consultant Software Engineering, said Spark Tank reflects the organisation’s long-term vision of embedding innovation into its DNA. “By nurturing intrapreneurship, we are not only unlocking the creativity of our people but also building a sustainable pipeline of healthcare solutions with real-world impact,” he said.
All finalist teams received participation certificates and commemorative plaques, while winning teams were awarded prize money and on-stage recognition. The winning ideas, selected through a rigorous multi-stage evaluation process, are now being positioned as high-potential ventures with the potential to evolve into independent startup projects.
Beyond the competition, the event served as a celebration of creativity, teamwork and employee contributions, concluding with an employee engagement gathering.
