Academy

Lifelong learning

The Academy brings together thought leaders, founders, and investors in workshops, seminars and courses designed to equip the next generation of thinkers and doers with in-depth knowledge of the startup and innovation ecosystem.

James and the team are great lecturers. The sessions are practical and relatable even in the Philippine context. Excited to apply what we’ve learned in our own programs.

Having spent a lot of time supporting the community and hosting investment connection forums, I found the training to be an incredible experience. It went beyond just theory, offering ‘sharp’ and battle-tested tools. I am much more confident now in designing incubation programs and connecting resources.
