FREQUENTLY
-ASKED
QUESTIONS

Yes. You do not need a team to apply. Many strong startups begin with one committed individual. However, during incubation, we may guide you on building the right team if your idea requires additional skills such as tech, design, or operations.

No. A registered company is not required at the application stage. If your startup progresses toward funding, partnerships, or revenue generation, we will guide you through the formal registration process step by step.

The incubation structure is designed around student schedules. Sessions are planned to balance coursework and startup work. The goal is to complement your academic learning, not disrupt it.

No prior experience is expected. This program is designed especially for first-time founders. We focus on mindset, consistency, and willingness to learn rather than past achievements.
