Online registration for the “Startup School 4” project, implemented at the initiative of the “Enterprise Azerbaijan” portal of the Center for Analysis of Economic Reforms and Communication, has begun. This time, the project will be implemented under the slogan “Five Continents – 500 Startups”.
This initiative is aimed at expanding cooperation between global innovation ecosystems and covers five continents - Africa, Europe, Asia, America and Australia. The program is implemented to strengthen startups’ access to international networks, promote the exchange of knowledge and experience between different ecosystems, as well as support the integration of startups into global markets.
One of the main advantages that will be provided to startups within the framework of the “Startup School 4” project is the involvement of mentors from the world’s leading innovation ecosystems. The program also envisages the involvement of local and global venture funds and investors in the process, support for startups in investment preparation and establishment of relations with an international investor network.
Startups' applications for the “Startup School 4” program will be accepted until May 15, 2026. After the registration stage, online training and mentoring programs will be organized for selected startups under the guidance of professionals from global ecosystems, and the process of introducing startups to investors and preparing for investment will be carried out.
The main goals of the program include creating opportunities for cooperation between startups applying from five continents, comparative analysis of various innovation ecosystems, and the formation of new business models and development prospects arising from this analysis.
Startups that are in the idea stage, in the process of preparing an MVP, or have an MVP can apply for the “Startup School 4” project.
