Incubation Batch 7:
Build Your Business
With AI

We do not stop at theory. Founderplus provides the AI and works alongside you to implement it in your business, from strategy and tool selection through to setting up the infrastructure, so the technology actually runs and actually matters rather than staying an idea.

Hi Founders!

Being a startup founder is not easy work.

We have felt firsthand how hard it is to build a business from nothing. That is exactly why you need to arm yourself with knowledge, competence, and a quality ecosystem around you.

Building a business is deeply risky and takes no small amount of resources.

So we built an incubation programme centred on equipping and developing the core competencies of a startup founder.

This incubation programme is built around a few things in particular:

Comprehensive Material

Complete, structured learning for building a business from zero

Experienced Operators

Delivered directly by practitioners who have built successful businesses

Theory & Practice

Theory, field insight, and hands-on practice combined

Real Case Studies

Drawing on real cases from local and global businesses

1-on-1 Mentoring

Personal mentoring for whatever your startup specifically needs

Ecosystem Access

Connections into the startup ecosystem, investors, and partners

So many new insights. The schedule was packed, but it felt so worth it. The advice is practical, there is room to discuss, and you get to hear other startup founders share. Really worth it!

I was genuinely moved to be part of the bootcamp. For those of us outside the big cities, this kind of access to guidance is not easy to come by.
