We invite you to participate in the IdeasLab acceleration program!

IdeasLab is a free 12-week acceleration program for Ukrainian student teams, which will start on September 21st and will combine distance learning with offline work in Lviv.

The program is implemented by the Ideas Center UCU in cooperation with the University of Notre Dame (USA) and with the support of the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine.

During the program, teams will go from formulating and testing the problem to market research, building a business model, testing the value proposition, first sales and preparing a final presentation before an independent jury.

An important part of IdeasLab is working with mentors: entrepreneurs and specialists with experience in creating, launching, and scaling products, including representatives of Grammarly, SoftServe, HubSpot, UNICEF, and other companies.

At the final Demo Day, the jury will determine the winning team, which will be able to present its startup at the University of Notre Dame in the USA and receive grant support, which can amount to 200,000 UAH.

Conditions for participation: IdeasLab is designed for students who already have an idea, a university project, first developments, or have identified a problem for which they want to create a solution. A finished product, clients, or previous entrepreneurial experience are not mandatory conditions for participation.

Requirements for participants: Ukrainian students of any specialty who are pursuing their first higher education at a Ukrainian or foreign higher education institution, as well as college students from the third year, can apply. Teams can consist of up to 5 people.
