The Seedtrack Acceleration Program
Turn your innovative ideas into market opportunities
Dedicated to the earliest weeks of a startup project, the Seedtrack program applies to entrepreneurs as well as to students taking entrepreneurship courses.
The program consists of early exploration of the application domains for an innovation, identifying its core market targets and assessing market opportunities through customer interviews and market segment characterization.
Organized into six business sprints successively dealing with market positioning, product positioning and go-to-market strategic topics, the program is six to nine weeks long.

Testimonials
The Seedtrack program gave us a precise vision of the entire scenery of our newly born idea and forced us to validate and refine our hypothesises in front of potential users in a incredibly short amount of time. It is the perfect kickstarter and the global framework we will have in mind for our next product pivots and customer interviews.

The market on which my company plays is a tough one. The Seedtrack program helped me to focus on some topics in order to succeed. I really enjoyed the reviews. I will continue to use that tool in the future for sure.
