2 startups begin Incubation program

Individuals from 2 startups have begun a 10 week training into our Incubation Program to begin developing solid foundation to their startup journey.

The 10 week incubation program is to provide the startups with business and technical support which would be used to test and build their ideas.

The startup Founders during the incubation period will be exposed to several topics including Design Thinking: Empathy processes, Ideation, Definition, Testing and Prototyping. They will also be introduced to the Business Model and product development and Brainstorming sessions.

At the end of the period, the startups are expected to come out with fully functional products with traction to be presented at the Ghana Start-up Summit.

A main feature of this incubation program is an intense commitment to activities at the hub designed to propel and help them gain clarity in their incubation journey in order for them to produce functional products.

So far the teams have engaged in several activities which included embarking on Empathy Field Trips. The Empathy field trip was to extensively engage stakeholders in their localities and also to ensure an increased appreciation and validation of their ideas and solutions to challenges within their immediate environment.
