SIF Cohort 2.0

A structured three-month programme for startups past the idea stage. The incubator describes it as being for teams actively working on a prototype or on product development, with the aim of refining the product, validating the business model and getting ready for market entry. Applications are handled on a third-party platform rather than on the incubator's own form, and no dates are published on the programme page — check the application link for the current call before planning around it.

What you get

• Nine curated workshops across three months: problem validation, customer discovery and market research, prototyping and MVP development, business model and value proposition, pitching, product-market fit and customer acquisition, growth and digital marketing, financial planning, and scaling and team building
• One-on-one and group mentoring from industry experts
• A milestone roadmap with progress tracking
• Networking with mentors, advisors and the rest of the cohort
• A completion certificate and alumni support
• Eligibility for further incubation afterwards

Who can apply

• Early-stage startups with a working prototype or a product under development
• Founders committed to building and scaling the venture
• Teams that want to rework the business model and the go-to-market plan
• Teams able to commit fully to three months of workshops and mentoring

How selection works: not published.
