On this page, we are going to tell you what kind of companies incubators are, what services they provide and whether they are useful for your startup or not. On the other hand, we are going to tell you what this “pre-growth” or PreIncubator story is and where our brand’s position is in this market.
Marketing
Well, before anything else, we came instead of marketing and created a market. That is, we came and built two markets in Iran that did not exist before us and the audience needed them. The first one was “Canada Visa Startup Mentor” and the second one is “Pre-growth course for startups”.
We all know that launching a startup and a new idea in order to earn money is very complicated and full of challenges. In fact, this unknown path, especially if it takes place in a new country, will have more concerns than the homeland.
At the beginning, people who want to start a startup in a country like Canada may find it impossible and very difficult.
But one of the most important things that makes people hope to launch their startups and ideas in Canada is the existence of incubators or growth centers. These centers will greatly help this group of creative people and are known as a support for ideas and startups.
With these conditions, if a team’s startup plan is approved by an incubator, we can count on the realization of this idea.
In fact, the approval of the incubators means that your plan will have enough profit potential in Canada and a successful plan can be created from this idea.
In fact, this group of companies, known as incubators, will help you in the development and launch of a startup to move towards success in the shortest possible time.
So what is the pre-incubation period?
This course was created and designed by Visa Startup Team. In this course, we will help you to prepare to enter the incubator course. We will explain more about this in the following.
The term incubator has entered the literature of entrepreneurship and start-ups and new companies from the space of biology and medicine.
Zoologists and veterinarians use incubators to create a growth space for animal eggs or their babies in laboratories.
This device creates an environment almost similar to the natural environment (in terms of light, humidity and temperature) so that the growth process continues without problems.
If a human baby is born much earlier than the appropriate time or for any reason its body is not yet ready to face the physical environment, it is kept for a while in a device that takes care of and facilitates growth, which is also called an incubator.
Assessing the quality of startup ideas and whether these ideas will be valuable and profitable in a long period of time is the concern of Canadian authorities. Being approved by incubator companies in the Canadian startup process can be your winning card in the next steps, such as the process of obtaining your residence. Because the seal is a confirmation of the quality and uniqueness of your startup idea.
The activities of incubator companies are in the form of providing services to startups and new businesses, and they are often managed under the supervision of universities and governmental and organizational centers. So it makes sense that they not only invest in your project but also get paid for the services they provide. In other words, the role of incubators in Canadian startups is to prepare startups from various aspects (legal, financial, marketing, etc.) to start working. For example: these companies teach the methods of attracting and increasing capital and also supervise the initial development process of companies. And the services of these companies include permanent technical, human and financial support.
What is our duty now? We designed the pre-growth period. That is, we help you to enter into negotiations with incubators without any problems, and we identify and improve your weak points so that you have a better chance of entering the incubation period.
