Pre-Incubation

At the pre-incubation stage, IBA CED nurtures entrepreneurial thinking early through the Student Entrepreneurship Development program, immersing students and aspiring entrepreneurs in real-world learning experiences. This stage features a series of pop-up events that build business execution and marketing skills, as well as Invent—a Shark Tank-style pitching competition that enables participants to refine and present their ideas to expert panels. Additionally, entrepreneurship clinics and industry talks offer direct guidance from seasoned entrepreneurs and investors, laying a strong foundation for future ventures.
