Amazon Web Services ( AWS ) has revealed the names of 40 startups chosen for the third cohort of its AWS Generative AI Accelerator (GAIA), an eight-week program aimed at scaling early-stage companies developing foundational generative AI technologies. The 2025 cohort includes startups from North America, Asia Pacific and Japan, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America. The program will provide industry-specific mentoring and support for foundation model companies, infrastructure providers, and AI tooling innovators.
As announced by the company, the list includes the likes of Hyperbots, Smallest AI, Stimuler and 37 others. Each selected company will receive up to $1 million in AWS credits, access to AWS’s generative AI technology stack, and guidance from both business and technical mentors. The program also provides training in machine learning performance, stack optimization, and go-to-market strategies.
herry Karamdashti, General Manager & Head of Startups in North America at AWS said “Whether it’s in biotech labs, creative studios, or industrial applications, the pace of generative AI innovation is extraordinary, and it’s happening everywhere. This year’s cohort reinforces our mission to help that innovation move faster and deliver real-world impact for customers in every industry. We’re removing the barriers and accelerating opportunities so these leaders can grow their world-changing solutions.”
Tiffany Bloomquist, Head of Startups, Asia Pacific & Japan at AWS, said the region has become a hub for generative AI innovation. “From language models that enhance communication and bridge cultures, to specialized AI transforming legal work, financial processes, and scientific discovery, and cutting-edge robotics and physical AI solutions, these founders are solving complex regional challenges with global implications,” she said. “Through the AWS Generative AI Accelerator, we aim to provide the resources these startups need to scale, and connect them to a global ecosystem that will help turn their pioneering ideas into solutions that benefit customers across industries. I'm excited to see how these innovators will leverage AWS to push the boundaries of what's possible.”
