Do I need to have a business idea in advance?
You do not need to have a finished idea when you start the programme. Ideation is part of the programme, and you will develop ideas together with your team and with input from a range of experts and researchers.
Do I need to have a team in advance?
No, you do not need to have an idea to join the program. Participants are brought together into teams, where you will collaborate on developing new ideas from scratch. Through teamwork and guided ideation, you will explore challenges, generate concepts, and shape them into meaningful solutions.
