NEW YORK, New York [July 6, 2026] — CertiK, the largest Web3 security services provider, today announced its selection as an official vendor for Hub71, the global tech ecosystem based in Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM). The partnership gives Hub71 portfolio companies preferred access to CertiK's security and compliance services as they build and scale in one of the world's fastest-growing digital asset hubs.

As part of the partnership, Hub71 portfolio companies will receive a 20% discount across CertiK's full range of services, backed by a total subsidy pool of $200,000 available to eligible companies in the ecosystem. Hub71 startups will also receive free access to the CertiK Compliance Tool, CertiK's platform for navigating licensing applications — including with the ADGM Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA) and the UAE Central Bank — and for managing ongoing regulatory compliance.

The partnership comes as digital asset regulation in the UAE and beyond has moved from an exploratory phase into active, cross-jurisdictional enforcement. For early-stage companies, that shift has raised the stakes around licensing readiness, AML compliance, and smart contract security from day one, rather than as later-stage concerns.

Through the partnership, Hub71 companies gain direct access to CertiK's suite of services, including smart contract audits, penetration testing, and ongoing security monitoring, alongside compliance support tailored to the licensing pathways most relevant to companies building in and around ADGM. The CertiK Compliance Tool is designed to help founders track requirements across jurisdictions as they expand internationally, reducing the time and cost typically associated with multi-jurisdictional licensing.

The collaboration reinforces CertiK's role as a trusted security and compliance partner for high-growth digital asset ecosystems globally, and reflects Hub71's continued investment in giving portfolio companies access to the infrastructure and expertise needed to scale responsibly.
