Every great journey begins with a single step. In Week 1, we start with Orientation and Identifying Skills.

You’ll connect with fellow participants, sharing your aspirations and building a supportive community.
In Week 2, we’ll delve into Generating Business Ideas. You’ll learn creative techniques to brainstorm, refine, and validate your business concepts. By the end of this week, your idea will start taking shape, fueled by newfound confidence and clarity.
A dream without a plan is just a wish. Weeks 3 and 4 focus on Planning and Goal Setting and Personal Budgeting.

No business can thrive without proper funding. In Week 7, we explore Financing Your Business. You’ll discover various funding options, from personal savings to external investments, and learn how to manage your finances wisely.
