How the AED 1,700 gap moves with visa count
The one-visa difference is not a quirk. From the same 2026 dataset, Ajman NuVentures stays ahead at two visas — AED 16,200 against SRTIP's AED 17,795 — and the distance widens at three: AED 20,700 versus AED 26,035. Licence-only, the two nearly touch, at AED 4,888 in Ajman and AED 5,500 in Sharjah. If price is your only sorting key, Ajman NuVentures wins at every rung.
Who picks which zone
Price is rarely the whole decision. SRTIP — Sharjah's research, technology and innovation park — draws engineering consultancies, product developers and science-adjacent startups who want that positioning on their licence. Ajman NuVentures suits cost-led generalists: freelancers formalising client work, online sellers and service traders who need a compliant entity and one residency more than a particular address.
Two things founders ask
Is the residence visa itself different? No — both zones put you through the same federal process, and the resulting visa carries identical rights; only the sponsoring company's zone differs.
Do the two zones approve the same activities? Each keeps its own list. SRTIP leans towards research and technology activities while Ajman NuVentures covers broad trading and services — confirm your activity fits before you compare prices.
