Astana Hub has opened applications for the continuous support program for startups, Techpreneurs

Participating teams of Techpreneurs, who are creating promising IT products, can receive funding of up to 20 million tenge under the Seed Money program.

Astana Hub International Technopark has started accepting applications for Techpreneurs — a service platform that provides continuous support to startup projects, with the ability to select services within the program independently from one another.

Applications are accepted from IT projects at all stages — idea or MVP, regular sales — product/market fit, or active development and scaling of the startup — scale.

Program participants are selected based on submitted applications. The selection process includes two stages: screening — assessing whether the project meets the selection criteria, and diagnostics — evaluating the project by an expert based on an interview. The duration of a startup project's participation depends on its requests and needs; each project can independently form its own learning plan.

All workshops, masterclasses, individual consultations, and traction meetings are conducted in an online format, making the platform accessible to participants from all corners of the country and the world.

Each startup is assigned an individual tracker on the platform who helps the startup achieve its goals, test hypotheses, improve the project, and provides referrals for individual consultations necessary for project development. Additionally, projects can undergo monthly diagnostics to track the dynamics of effectiveness, growth, and team motivation.

Individual consultations for participants will be conducted by local and foreign experts in various fields: marketing, finance, investment attraction, sales, product development, law, and more. Each startup can individually choose its own expert.

As part of Invest Day, Techpreneurs participants will present their projects to business angels, investors, and VC funds.
