Technical assistance

For challenges that require a specific and intense burst of effort to get things right, we have the Technical Assistance program. The Technical Assistance program is designed for solving critical issues that build long term value for the company. Financial modeling, setting up accounting processes, IP registrations, and product design support are some of the areas that our entrepreneurs have sought for technical assistance in.
