Discover the ways of building and accelerating a startup in 7 days

The bootcamp aims to look for potential participants with viable business ideas to be developed as a startup or an early stage startup who wants to bring their business to the next level; from validating ideas into creating a minimum viable product (MVP) and a go-to-market strategy.
