Empowering Innovation Without Equity Stake
Central to the OST Programme’s ethos is its commitment to supporting innovation without claiming equity stakes from participating startups. A total of $50,000 in non-dilutive funding will be distributed among finalists, providing crucial financial backing to advance from proof of concept to minimum viable product (MVP) stage. Beyond funding, selected startups will benefit from tailored training and mentorship delivered by seasoned industry experts, bolstered by the involvement of MBA students from Columbia Business School.
Holistic Support and International Exposure
“This programme goes beyond financial support,” remarked a spokesperson from Open Startup. “It aims to accelerate market understanding and product refinement through personalized mentorship and global networking opportunities.” Participants will also gain invaluable international exposure through immersive visits to tech hubs in New York, Tunisia, and Morocco, facilitating cross-cultural insights and expansive networking opportunities crucial for scaling their ventures.
