AIIF, a new AI startup factory, opens its investment call: seed notes to 2B toman, growth checks to 50B

Iran AI Factory (AIIF) opened applications for its acceleration and investment tracks: convertible-note backing of up to 2 billion toman for seed-stage teams and equity investment of up to 50 billion toman for growth-stage companies, alongside a 100RFS program pairing founders with a hundred problems sourced from industry. The factory operates inside the restructured Azadi Innovation Factory ecosystem, where Sarava has exited and new vehicle Hoosh-Ava holds 49 percent of operator Hom-Ava; Digikala is the named backer of its first hackathon.
