Pre-Workshop Requirements

The 20 teams that will attend the Workshop are expected to come prepared with a ‘first-cut’ presentation of a Business Plan. This is to enable them to relate to the Workshop effectively.

Workshop

The 4-day Workshop conducted by ABLE will cover a wide range of topics, like Business Plan Essentials, Raising Finance and Managing, IP and Patenting Strategies etc. Industry experts in these fields will address and interact with the participants.

After the workshop, each team will make a 10 minute presentation to the Jury after which the Jury will ask questions to the team members and evaluate and critique the business plans. After all teams have finished their presentations and question-answers, the Jury will deliberate and decide and announce 3 winning teams.
