BIRD Announces New Incubation Program

BIRD Incubator announced its upcoming Incubation Program. It is a comprehensive 6-month, in-person program designed to help early-stage startups make their products or services market-ready.

Starting on October 1st, the program will be divided into two parts. The first part is more structured, focusing on supplying all startups with the same base knowledge through workshops, extracurricular events, and mentorship. The second part is less structured, focusing on each startup individually to help them achieve their goals, whether funding, traction, or tech development, by the end of the incubation period.

The Incubation Program is crafted for early-stage startups with an AI component and minimum viable product. To be accepted, startups have to pass the selection process that will take place in September. The first part of the program will be comprised of 12 weeks in total and delivered in a workshop format. After the holiday break, the second part of the program will focus on individual support. The program will finish with a Demo Day in April 2025.

Participants will benefit from the guidance of seasoned mentors and industry experts, including Dora Zane, Biljana Ljuban, Ema Gerovac, Scott Coleman, Bojan Vrančić, Ivan Bračić, Anton Smolčić, Marko Linke, Branimir Petrušić, Jan Jilek, Vedran Blagus, Vuk Lau, lawyers from BDV legal, and marketing team from the 404 agency. These sessions offer a unique opportunity to gain insights, forge connections, and refine business ideas with expert input.
