Not necessarily. We accept beginners with strong learnability and existing builders looking to scale. Your drive matters more than your starting point.
How much does it cost?
Cohort 1 is tuition-free for selected applicants thanks to federal NBTI backing. You only commit your time and effort.
Where does the program run?

You do. JIEDAP supports you to register your own company under your name — we don't take founder equity.
