Compete
We organize large-scale events where founders and builders compete for funding or product acquisition in cooperation with our partners and corporate sponsors all within 3 days. We call these 'pathways'. Winning teams automatically get access to the NeXidea ecosystem, including advisors, media, experts, resources, incubators, and accelerators.
STARTUP
This pathway is designed for aspiring entrepreneurs/founders who want to bring their startup to market. Angel investors or VC firms come with a product concept. During the course of the event, teams create startups related to the concept. Accredited judges evaluate not only the MVP, but entrepreneurial skills and business strategy of the founding team as well. The top teams receive a pre-seed investment from the investors and are funneled into our accelerator/incubator network.
PRODUCT AQUISITION
This pathway is designed for technically-skilled builders who want a fast merger & acquisition (M&A) process. Corporate partners come with a product discovery, use case, or technological improvement. For the duration of the event, products are built out accordingly. Accredited judges evaluate the quality of the builds. The corporate partner acquires the top products, and the teams receive a successful exit in only 3 days.
