Avidia Hackspace is an 8-week intensive program designed to help entrepreneurs build and scale their startups. It provides a collaborative environment where developers and entrepreneurs work together to create innovative technology solutions. The program includes a 36-hour prototyping session, continuous development support, and a final Demo Day.
Through our partnership with the Edodwaja Foundation, selected startups receive grants that cover 30-40% of their development costs. The grant terms are finalized before the Hackspace event begins, ensuring clarity and financial support throughout the program.
You’ll receive hands-on support from our experienced development team, access to in-house tools for faster prototyping, and bi-weekly updates on your project’s progress. Our team will be present at every stage to ensure your startup's success.
Avidia Hackspace is ideal for entrepreneurs with innovative ideas who need technical support to build their startup's tech foundation. Whether you're a startup founder or an innovator looking to scale your product, our program is designed to help you succeed.
The program starts with a 36-hour offline event where your prototype is built from scratch. Over the following eight weeks, this prototype is developed into a fully functional product. The program concludes with a Demo Day where you can showcase your product to potential investors, mentors, and peers.
