How It Works
Our Process
New intakes start with a written application then those who make the cut move to our unique RISE program, culminating in a PITCH to your community to hone your skills. The RISE program is a deep dive into best practice to grow your business.
The final step is graduation into the local economy as a well-prepared and sustainable business.
When we’re assessing your application, we’re looking for:
- A scalable business
- High-performance teams
- Commitment to growing the Bega Valley ecosystem, and/or
- Openness to feedback.
And from there, anything can happen.
Bega Valley Innovation Hub is the ideal place to take your business into a whole new stratosphere. Apply now and watch your business potential unfold.
