My final design – Incubator Plus Programme is a 6-month initiative designed to support early-stage entrepreneurs in transforming their business ideas into viable ventures, while also equipping them with essential digital and career development skills.
My Contribution to the Programme:
Pre-Programme Delivery
Designed a dual track learning pathway, integrating business development and digital upskilling, tailored for emerging entrepreneurs.
Recruited 108 participants through outreach campaigns, referrals, and community engagement, with 44 successfully onboarded following eligibility checks and induction sessions.
Curated a structured programme combining 12 business workshops, 12 digital skills labs, and 3 high-level masterclasses delivered by industry leaders.
Mid-Programme Delivery
Facilitated skill-building sessions covering core topics such as business ideation, market research, branding, finance, legal structure, and pitch readiness.
Delivered hands-on training in digital presence, e-commerce platforms, and content creation to help participants establish online visibility and launch products/services.
Provided ongoing one-to-one coaching, expert mentoring, and access to subsidised co-working and event spaces, ensuring a supportive entrepreneurial environment.
Maintained an active cohort of 33 engaged participants, achieving a 75% engagement rate to date.
End of Programme Delivery (in progress)
Participants are progressing toward final outcomes, including customer acquisition, launch of MVPs (Minimum Viable Products), and freelance work opportunities.
Final showcase and investor networking events are being planned to support business visibility and potential fundraising.
Programme monitoring and evaluation are ongoing, with feedback loops in place to inform final impact reporting.
The programme is helping entrepreneurs take real steps towards launching their businesses. They’re learning everything from how to build a business and manage finances to setting up online stores and finding customers. Many are already building products or services, building their brand, and even taking on freelance work. The programme is still ongoing, and the final outcomes including pitch events and funding opportunities are yet to come.
