Ongoing until 31.1.2021
Do you have a business idea related to biotechnology or circular economy? Would you like to get validation on your idea and develop your idea further with your own mentor?
Regardless of the stage you are with your project, the BBC Mentoring Program will get you and your idea to the next level!
Don`t waste time anymore, contact us immediately!
In the ad hoc mentoring sessions you will get professional coaching and feedback on your idea from experienced startup professionals. Useful and suitable tools and practices to further develop your idea will be provided, depending on the stage of your own project.
The participating startups will build up their pith deck over the course of the mentoring sessions and be prepared to present their business idea in a way that it immediately conveys traction and attracts partners, investors and customer. Startups will get the opportunity to pitch their idea in a Cross-Border Pitch Event later in 2021 with Finnish and Russian business professionals.
