MENTOR DAY at HTP to Support IT Startups

On June 28, 2014 the HTP administration together with StartIdea will hold a MENTOR DAY to provide practical assistance to budding IT entrepreneurs in developing their startup projects.

The event will consist of 2 blocks. Within the first one, the expert Vitaly Vinogradov will conduct a training seminar addressing the issue of creating a project roadmap. Pre-registration is required.

The second block of the MENTOR DAY will be devoted to communication – selected teams will be able to ask questions and get advice from experts. Several promising projects will be awarded with prizes and grants to create a prototype and promote the startup. Also, several projects will get the opportunity to participate in the programs intended to support IT entrepreneurship within the HTP business incubator scheduled to open in September 2014, and the Belarus-Korea Information Access Center. Yury Zisser, Alexander Skrabovsky, Alexander Knyrovich and Denis Kondratovich are among MENTOR DAY experts.

Applications to participate in the MENTOR DAY should be submitted via the event website until June 15, 2014. The event will be held at the HTP coworking center: 1/2 Kuprevich Street, 4th floor.
