INCUBATION PROGRAMME
Our flagship Incubation Programme provides high-quality advisory services for pre-seed and seed stage social enterprises.
The BfE Incubation Programme supports early stage enterprises through a series of structured engagements.
Each engagement is conducted completely pro bono by our student teams and professional mentors with deep industry expertise.
Communication throughout the entire Incubation Programme takes place remotely online so you can focus on running your business at the same time.
Programme Overview
Startups begin with a consulting engagement to tackle a specific business problem, then proceed to a finance advisory engagement to prepare for fundraising. Startups may also request for extra support on technical or legal issues.
