Academy

This stage guides successful participants of the Gymnasium stage to transform their concept into a full business plan and accelerates the launch of their ventures. It features advanced educational and training workshops in business fundamentals, skills building sessions, trips to major startup centers, such as the Silicon Valley and New York, mentorship through Metavallon’s global network of experts, and access to seed funding. By the end of the 6-8 months of the Academy, Fellows will have also completed their prototypes or MVPs (Minimum Viable Product).

Fellows participating in the Academy stage are evaluated by Metavallon on their overall performance, implementation progress and fundraising success, and the most successful Fellows graduate to the final stage, the Institute.
