Frequently Asked Questions about the Advanced Entrepreneurship program
To participate in the program, companies must have at least one and a half years of operation, generate annual revenues in excess of $50,000 and demonstrate representative leadership between men and women. In addition, SMEs must have a notable differentiation in their product, service, marketing process or business structure, and have the desire to grow and enter new markets.
It is not strictly necessary to have previous experience in incubators or accelerators. The program is designed for SMEs that already have traction in the market and are ready to take the next step towards accelerated growth. However, participants are expected to have a clear understanding of their business and a commitment to implement it at new stages of development.
The program has a duration of 3 months, with face-to-face or virtual sessions on Thursday afternoons. Participants are expected to dedicate the necessary time to attend the sessions and work on the tasks and recommendations given by the mentors. Although the program is flexible, it is crucial that entrepreneurs are committed to their growth and actively participate.
The program is not limited to a specific sector and is open to companies from a variety of industries. What is most important is that SMEs have an innovative proposition, market differentiation and a clear focus on scaling their operation, regardless of the sector they are in.
The program is free of charge for selected companies. However, participants must cover their own expenses related to travel to the face-to-face sessions or any other costs not directly covered by the program.
