When will the programme take place?
The programme will run from July – December 2023, with a residency week in July and December. Throughout its duration, in-depth virtual mentoring and coaching, with an intense focus on access to funding and customers, form critical parts of the programme.
Who is it for?
Ten high-growth, innovation-driven start-ups with the ability to scale globally. We’re looking for mostly local and a few global innovators in any sector… founders with big ideas, backed by results.
Grindstone is a structured entrepreneurship development programme that assists high-growth innovation-driven companies to get the fundamental building blocks in place to scale quickly and become sustainable and fundable.
