What do we do?

We will work with you on your business case and teach you how financiers and investors view it. You can expect honest feedback from us on your plans and on the activities you are currently carrying out to realize those plans.   In addition, you will get a complete picture of the possibilities that early phase financing sources offer. Together with your Oost NL supervisor and the other entrepreneurs in the program, you will work for ten weeks to collect the correct information you need to draw up promising financing or investment application. In addition, we also give you the tools to present this in a good way.   In plenary sessions, you work on all building blocks of your business plan. We coach you on: > Market validation; > Protection of intellectual property (IP); > Team; > Value proposition; > Business model; and > Financing strategy.   In plenary sessions, you will receive direct feedback from the other participants, but also from your supervisor and from our financial and knowledge partners who are closely involved in the program.
