FAQ

Can any startup participate, regardless of the type of activity?

Yes, any startup can take part in the contest from any field of activity. Whether high-tech innovation, IT, or production, we welcome projects that are ready to present themselves to the world.

Which countries are allowed to participate in the startup contest?

This contest is LatAm based, so we accept startups from any country from the region.

Do I have to pay to participate in this contest?

No, participation in our contest is free! We do not take any additional financial contributions from our competitors.

What will the participation in this contest give me?

Each participant in the contest will receive a chance to be seen. Top 15 startups will get valuable feedback from our judges -top VCs, accelerators, and experts from TOP companies. Winners will get up to 3 free individual consultations with an expert among the jury members, access to a closed community, as well as mentions in the media!

If my company is not registered yet, can I still participate?

Yes, any project can participate in the contest. The existence of a company is not a must.

If my pitch deck is raw or under-developed and I know I won't win, should I still participate?

We recommend applying even if you are not confident in your deck. We pay much more attention to your ability to grow based on the market fit, product design, and the technology you are leveraging. If we can see this we will help you to improve your pitch and materials.

Will there be certificates, diplomas, or marks for participants and winners?

In addition to the experience, each participant will receive a unique diploma that states you took part in our startup contest. Winners will also receive an electronic badge that can be put on their website or mobile application as a sign of distinction for successfully passing our difficult but certainly interesting startup contest!
