How Openground works.

Start Learning

Create a business plan, conduct market research, and develop an MVP (minimum viable product). You’ll take real, actionable steps to bring your business idea to life.

Get Paired With a Mentor

You’ll be matched with a mentor who has genuine real-world business experience. They’ll guide you through the ups and downs of building your business and help you navigate challenges along the way.

Hear From Expert Guest-Speakers

Throughout the programme, you’ll hear from leading entrepreneurs, investors, and innovators who have walked the path before you. These sessions will inspire you, expose you to new industries, and give you valuable insights that most students never get while still in school.

Pitch For Funding In The Dragon's Den

Put your ideas to the test in front of real investors, business leaders, and mentors. The Dragons’ Den is your chance to pitch for real funding to take your business to the next level, just like the entrepreneurs you see on TV.

Go to Market $

Once your product or service is ready, it’s time to launch. You’ll take your business to market, start making sales, and experience what it’s really like to run something of your own. This is where everything you’ve learned comes together — strategy, communication, resilience, and entrepreneurial thinking in action.
