bigbooster SUPPORTS 2 cohorts of startups
The BigBooster program is aimed at startups from all over the world, from all stages and various industries.
Depending on their level of maturity towards international growth, startups are divided into 2 cohorts: early stage startups who create a roadmap for a future internationalisation project and startups ready to explore a new market who launch their exploration of international markets.
Both cohorts of entrepreneurs participate in the BoosterCamp during which they meet with mentors and experts in their target field and territory. At the end of the event, all are auditioned by a final jury to select the winners per cohort. The winners of the startups ready to explore a new market cohort enter the Go Global phase.
