INCUBATE is proud to announce the ProtoX First Nations program.

ProtoX is the pre accelerator program from the award-winning team at INCUBATE. ProtoX helps aspiring entrepreneurs to move from their initial idea to their first customers. It is a 12-week program that helps founders identify their ideal customer personas, craft their business model, and create their first MVP.

ProtoX First Nations will help aspiring First Nations founders explore the opportunity to turn their research or business ideas into viable businesses. It is open to University of Sydney students, staff, and alumni from any First Nations background. The program delivery will be run by the INCUBATE team, with the mentoring led by 2 indigenous Australian Entrepreneurs in Residence (both successful entrepreneurs themselves) who will be supported by the INCUBATE mentor and partner network.

This event will give a brief introduction to the program and those behind the program. But it is more about potential founders getting to meet with the mentors and industry partners who will help demystify the entrepreneurial journey and will help them understand the opportunities that may lie ahead.
