Three Phases of Success
Ideate
Every great startup begins with a bold **and visionary** idea. In this phase, teams brainstorm, research, and refine their concepts to address real-world challenges. With expert mentorship, they craft innovative, scalable, and impactful solutions.

Prototype
Turning ideas into reality—this phase focuses on building a functional prototype or MVP. Participants develop their solutions, test feasibility, and receive industry feedback to enhance their product before pitching to investors.
02
Startup
The final phase is where vision meets execution. Teams refine their business models, craft compelling pitches, and present their startups to a panel of industry leaders. This is where startups are born, and futures are shaped.
