Throughout the 60-day program, students will be provided a co-working space, entrepreneurial masterclasses and expert mentoring to help them reach their customers and generate sales.

Student's teams will set their own milestones and KPIs, which will have to be discussed and agreed on by the program mentors. They will then be held accountable against their own goals. Students will be supported throughout, not only to achieve the goals they set, but to outperform their own expectations.

The program will be delivered in-person at the UQ Ventures Hawken space, St Lucia
