In addition, they will receive mentoring with businessmen and entrepreneurs from the business community of the Chambers of Commerce.
• Takes off: The second stage aims to promote this year 250 projects and startups that already have a minimum viable product. Participants will continue building their project with specialized tutors and expert mentors, until attending a Demo Day. In this event, the best projects will be eligible for a financial prize of €4.800.
