Startup Boost Week (SBW) is going to be a week-long event, where participating students will have the opportunity to develop teams, shape startup ideas and under mentors’ supervision, present their creative ideas to the experienced jury. SBW_Vol7 will have a semi-online format and will take place between April 5 and 11. The event is going to take place in regions. Youth organizations and local tech companies will become the regional focal points, where student groups of 5-10 will gather to participate in the event. Students will physically be in the regional focal points, whereas the mentors and general staff will be in contact with them via online platforms. Mentors will conduct sessions on idea generation, hypothesis and validation, pitching techniques, and other aspects of startups. After presenting startup ideas to the jury, three teams will win special prizes.
