The "Vitebsk City Startups" competition is designed to help aspiring entrepreneurs

Конкурс «Стартапы города Витебска» призван помочь начинающим предпринимателям

A startup is a project that is in the stage of development or research of promising markets. Any idea must first take shape and be filled with content, only then can it become a reality. However, not everyone understands what is needed for a project to turn into a successful business. That is why the decision was made to hold a city startup competition, organized by the Vitebsk City Executive Committee, the Association of Employers and Entrepreneurs, and the information and consulting association "City of Vitebsk and Company".

As noted by the initiator of the competition, Andrey Lapin, many lack the basics to start their own business: information. Where to go? How to decide on the company name and main type of activity? Where to find specialists? Therefore, it is important to create an action algorithm for project implementation. Attracted business consultants and experts, as well as blogs where entrepreneurs can share their developments, will also help with this.

To become a participant in the competition, you need to go to the "Startups of Vitebsk" website and register in one of the sections: "Specialists", "Ideas", or "Projects". The competition will last until May of the current year. In the end, the names of the winners will be announced, who will receive not only awards but also projects ready for implementation. The rest will depend on the motivation and desire of the aspiring businessman himself.
