Selection ProcessOnce an application is received, the selection process involves preliminary screening to assess its alignment with the focus areas and readiness level for incubation. Proposals that meet the basic eligibility and thematic criteria are then reviewed by our internal committee, which evaluates them based on parameters such as novelty, viability of the business plan, market fit, and the competence of the founding team.
