    Frequently Asked Questions

    Here are some questions Founders tend to ask

    How does SmartUp help build new companies?

    Building a company is an art just as much as it’s a profession. By joining SmartUp, founders can learn how to build successful high-tech companies through our comprehensive program. The SmartUp Team believes that our method, combined with collaboration, mentorship, and hard work, allows companies to reach profitability in 3-5 years.

    Do you invest in companies?

    SmartUp is an entrepreneurial internship program, not an investment company. Our goal is to change how people build new companies. If SmartUp joins a currently operating company, or founds a new one, we collaborate using the co-founding model. SmartUp has resources and capital allocated to our portfolio companies and provides a vast professional network to support them.

    How can SmartUp help my idea become a successful company?

    Learning how to build successful companies takes time, and SmartUp gives you the time and support you need. As a co-founder of your company, SmartUp is there for you and will teach you how to maximize success in all areas of a business – from marketing and sales to development and team recruitment. We have extensive experience building profitable companies in 3 to 5 years, and our experts will tailor-make a program that fits your project.
