Ostad 200 Incubator Project: Stimulating Entrepreneurship in Aruba
ORANJESTAD - In August 2024, Aruba will celebrate the 200th anniversary of our capital, Oranjestad.
In honor of this occasion, the Ministry of Economic Affairs and ImpactHub is organizing the Ostad 200 Incubator project, which will be part of the national celebration.
The goal of the incubator is to give a boost to two groups of entrepreneurs: "startups" (new companies) and "scale-ups" (existing companies that want to scale up their operations). The Ministry of Economic Affairs aims to stimulate entrepreneurship in Aruba, especially in SME (small and medium-sized enterprises) development, the key part of our economy.
Participation is open via www.ostad200.com, and there will be substantial prizes for the pitch competition winners.
The aim is for the Ostad 200 Incubator to inspire local entrepreneurs and bring out the best in the business community. Ostad 200 Incubator is a vision and effort of ImpactHub, the Chamber of Commerce, the University of Aruba, Setar, and WEB Aruba.
