After you have submitted your project, a pre-selection is carried out by a reading panel which adjudicates the admissibility of the submission according to four criteria.

The business idea has to meet the following requirements:

• originating from the Greater Region;

• being innovative;

• being economically feasible;

• not being funded through risk capital yet.

Once the reading panel has validated your project it will be forwarded to the Contest where a team of coaches will assist and advise you during the elaboration of your Business Plan.

Via a detailed e-mail you will be informed of the reading panel’s decision.
