Program

Pre-Program (Self-Guided Preparation)

Before we meet in Singapore, StartGlobal starts with your mindset.
There are no mandatory classes or scheduled sessions before the camp — instead, we provide you with a curated list of essential topics and learning resources. It’s up to you to take initiative and prepare.
This program is built for proactive problem-solvers — students who don’t wait for instructions, but seek out knowledge and act on it. How much you learn before the program is entirely up to you — but the more you explore, the more impactful your in-person experience will be.

What You Should Know (Before the Program in Singapore)

We strongly recommend you explore the following topics in your own time — through YouTube videos, articles, case studies, or books:

• Lean Startup Principles
  Understand how startups iterate: Build – Measure – Learn

• Problem Identification & Validation
  Learn to spot real problems and test assumptions early

• Customer Discovery
  Conduct interviews and understand user needs before building

• Solution Design & MVP Thinking
  Design fast, test fast — what does “minimum viable” really mean?

• Pitching Essentials
  How to tell your story, structure a pitch, and speak with clarity

• Team Dynamics
  What makes a great startup team (and what breaks one)

 
A list of suggested videos, readings, and exercises will be shared after acceptance.

StartGlobal rewards those who take ownership.

If you're the kind of person who learns before being told, contributes without being asked, and leads without a title — you're already in the right mindset.
