AI Start is the beginning of the journey as an AI startup founder. Within four weeks, participants further develop and validate their startup ideas by building AI-based prototypes.
Incubator is a five-month program that supports early-stage founders in turning their ideas into reality. Through structured workshops, mentorship, and support, founders move from a rudimentary concept toward a market-ready MVP.
At the Finals, teams from both programs present the results of their work and share the progress they have made throughout their journey.
