Entrepreneurs who have an MVP and are already operational are invited to apply for the Track 2 of the programme - an accelerator that begins with in-depth training and progresses into a challenge-led phase through Innovation Pods.

Through Innovation Pods, selected startups will collaborate closely with EGA teams to work on real, EGA-defined problem statements with the potential of running pilots. A cohort of 20 startups will be selected to participate, gaining hands-on experience through training with experts.

Selected startups will then participate in Innovation Pods, with opportunities to collaborate directly with EGA, access to financial rewards during Pitch day, and a clear pathway toward pilot-ready solutions.
