What's an incubation program?
An incubation program helps entrepreneurs at their early stages validate their idea and develop their business plan as they create strategies covering different sides of their projects.
It can sometimes be confused with an accelerator program which helps speed up growth when entrepreneurs are at the later stages. The main difference is an incubator helps at earlier stages.

How do you select entrepreneurs?
The selection process includes an online application to ensure that accepted entrepreneurs are ready for the incubation program. We evaluate applicants based on:
- The stage of maturity of your project at this moment (should be from solid idea to early-stage company)
- The needs you currently have (should be about getting external validation, planning your go-to-market, and have a clear roadmap for the next months; we are not an investment fund)
- Your understanding of the problem you’re solving for your customers
- Your passion to solve this problem and launch your business
- The innovative nature of your project
The best tip we can give you for your application: show us you’ve really thought about your business and the problem you’re solving, and that you’re ready to put all of your energy into making it a reality!
How much time do I need to dedicate to this program?
Throughout the 3 months, the activities require 6 to 8 hours per week (including 1-2h calls with your mentor) but there are always opportunities for you to go deeper and spend more time on each stage to significantly develop and validate your ideas.
I’m concerned about my intellectual property if I apply
We hope that our reputation speaks for itself on this topic. We treat your application and program data as confidential information. They are protected by our Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy, and your mentor will sign a Mentorship Agreement that includes a confidentiality clause.
