Frequently asked
Who can apply to the program?+
Anyone aged 18–35 with a project across tech, film or business.
When can I apply?+
Apply for free between July 24 and August 10.
How does it work?+
You can apply between July 24 and August 10. We will then review all applications and select the most promising projects. Shortlisted applicants will be asked to submit a short video pitch to assess their English proficiency and communication skills. Following the assessment, 20 participants will be selected to take part in three days of masterclasses and 1:1 mentorship, taking place from August 27–29. The program will culminate on August 30 with a live pitch in front of a panel of investors.
What do I need to submit with my application?+
We ask you to submit a project presentation or pitch deck in PDF format. Present your project clearly and structure it in a visually engaging way, just as you would prepare a professional pitch deck to present your idea to investors.
Is the program held in English?+
Yes. The program will be conducted primarily in English, as our mentors and tutors are international professionals. The final pitch will also be delivered in English, as our goal is to prepare participants to take their projects to the international market.
Who are the tickets for?+
The tickets are for those who are not participating in the program but want to focus on their personal and professional development.
What does the ticket include?+
Access to the masterclasses taking place from August 27–29 and, depending on the pass, access to the main event on the final day.
I wasn’t selected — can I still attend?+
Yes! All applicants who are not selected will receive a discount on their ticket.
