Need Inspiration? Why not Hack it …?

Not everyone has a clean energy business idea in their head!
A Hackathon gives you the time and space to come up with a brilliant idea and explore it with a team.
At the Hackathon we will share the challenges and opportunities faced in agricultural and rural areas … and we have also found the right people who know this stuff who can mentor you!

Want to validate your concept?

You have a business idea but not sure if it'll fly: will it work?
The Pre-Incubation program is for entrepreneurs a rough idea of your business concept and you want to spend some time, supported by mentors, to see if the concept can fly. By the end, you'll know if it's a business you want to take forward and who in the team is committed to go with you!
