For First-Time Entrepreneurs
Meet Sofia – A 22-year-old university student in Cartagena, Colombia

Meet Andrés – A retail shop owner in Montería, Colombia

How Ascent Helped:
He enrolled in Ascent Incubator to explore different ideas, select the most feasible, scalable, and profitable one, and get guidance for creating an MVP to sketch out an e-commerce extension of his store.

Ascent Incubator gave Laura instant access to modules on market validation, customer personas, and MVP building. With bilingual content and student discounts via her university’s partnership, she built a prototype and entered a campus startup competition.

How Ascent Helped:
Ascent Incubator helped Laura to match her profile with business models based on her expertise. She built a SaaS platform that automated parts of her freelance service and used customer testing tools to validate the offer before launch.
