The Challenge
Where programmes get stuck
Every incubator gets asked “how many are still trading?” Few can answer past the last cohort. Graduates scatter, tracking stops at demo day, and survival the number the whole model rests on becomes a guess delivered with a confident face.
Survival rate is a guess, not a tracked fact
Selection decisions with no documented rationale
Mentoring that happens but is never recorded
Funder reports rebuilt from scratch every cycle
Alumni tracking that stops the day the cohort graduates
What We Help With
Solutions Selection
Compliance
Defensible Selection
Scored applications and diagnostic baselines, so “why these fifteen?” has a documented answer.
- Application scoring
- Diagnostic baseline capture
Mentoring
Visible Mentoring
Who met whom, about what, and what changed afterwards — mentor impact stops being folklore
- Session logs
- Mentor-to-outcome attribution
Survival
Tracking That Outlives the Cohort
Alumni stay in the system — your headline survival number becomes a fact, not a guess.
- Alumni check-ins
- Longitudinal survival tracking
