No entrepreneur should go for it alone !! It takes support and guidance to truly realize the potential of your idea. Turbine offers all this support in one place, they provide you with a dedicated mentor to accompany you on your journey, the use of a co-working space, a community of likeminded people to learn from and share with, access to a comprehensive list of experts in all the necessary fields including legal, finance and marketing to name a few and network to ensure you get the best chance of success. Turbine has been of great value in the setup of ConnectMe and the launch of our first product www.tutorme.mu , a platform connecting anyone looking for tuition in Mauritius with trusted tutors. We would highly recommend the incubation program to anyone looking to test, validate and grow their business.

The Incubation Programme gave me the support that I needed to create a prototype and launch it. During the one-year programme, my ideas and assumptions were challenged and as a result I was able to build a better product to better serve my customers.
