Learn from the best mentors in building disruptive technologies.

THE GIFT

The Gift is a 14-week, once a week training program, designed to bring the best out of a starting entrepreneur. It takes the entrepreneur through the start up cycle which begins with Self Mastery followed by Situation Mastery and ends with Enterprise Mastery. The program helps the entrepreneur learn about himself/herself, how to spot and choose opportunities, validate ideas and how to run a business so that they are ready to pitch to potential investors.

Academicians and practitioners who have deep knowledge and experience in entrepreneurship conduct the Gift. Mentors from the Masters in Entrepreneurship program are also tapped to share their expertise.

Classes conducted use various techniques including case studies, videos, lectures games and the like thus making each session fun and interactive.

If you have a startup idea you're looking to realize or an ongoing business you'd like to take to the next level for investors and partners, the Gift program may be perfect for you! The Gift is tech agnostic, stage agnostic, and open to all.

Classes are conducted either every Thursday or Saturday, depending on the Batch, from 9am to 5pm at StartUp Village, 5th Floor, City Club, Alphaland Makati Place, Ayala Avenue cor Malugay Street, Makati City.
