What’s next!

First, you must answer the form where we’ll learn more about your business. Then, when the application process closes, the eligibility stage begins, where we will evaluate whether your startup meets the Terms and Conditions criteria. Afterward, expert judges and the Start-Up Chile team will evaluate the application forms; if we want to get to know your startup better, we will call you for an interview. Finally, we present all the information to the committees, where we will discuss and choose the best startups to be part of our programs.
