The total prize fund of the program, one of the largest startup initiatives in the Central Eurasia region, amounted to 1 million USD.
Within the incubation program, our resident startup “Lingozy”, representing Azerbaijan, received a prize of 10,000 USD.
It should be noted that startups from Azerbaijan received a total of 70,000 USD in grants. In the acceleration program, the startup “Recepta” was awarded 50,000 USD, while “SnackPack AZ” earned 10,000 USD within the incubation program. Additionally, in the “Best Startup Project” category, Azerbaijani startups “StarkidStories” and “Tryverse” represented the country in the final stage. Other Azerbaijani startups that qualified for participation in the incubation program included “Crable”, “himate.az” and “OLSUN”.
The “Digital Startup Awards” program strengthened cooperation among regional startup ecosystems and contributed to increasing international recognition of Azerbaijani startups, opening new opportunities for their development.
An info session visit to the "INNOLAND" Incubation and Acceleration Center was organized for the trainers of the "Power of the Morning" development program.
During the visit, participants received valuable information about the activities of the center, the startup ecosystem, the stages of turning ideas into business, and the operating principles of the innovation environment.
The info session was presented by the INNOLAND team.
A “Youth Camp” has been organized for the children of martyrs.
Within the framework of the project, the INNOLAND Incubation and Acceleration Center conducted a series of educational and practical sessions for children of martyrs aged 7–23.
During the “Urban Planning Creativity” activity, teams used the provided materials to design and present innovative city models. Trainings on innovation and idea generation were also organized. Participants joined interactive sessions on the concept of startups, idea development, and presentation skills.
Throughout the program, young participants enhanced their creative thinking, problem-solving, and effective idea presentation skills.
The project was organized by the YAŞAT Fondu and the Ministry of Youth and Sports of the Republic of Azerbaijan, with the support of the Goranboy District Executive Authority, the ASAN Könüllüləri Təşkilatı, the INNOLAND İnkubasiya və Akselerasiya Mərkəzi, the Baku Psychology Center, and the Azerbaijan Human Resources Association.
