The recruitment of participants for the third season of the national accelerator “Brave 3. Digital evolution of business” has begun in Ukraine. The program is aimed at female entrepreneurs who want to scale their business and implement digital innovations. This year, the financial support fund amounts to UAH 6 million, reports the press service of the Ministry of Digital.
The program will last 14 weeks and includes two learning formats: online lectures from experts, as well as intensive offline and virtual bootcamps with mentor support. The participants will take a test to determine the digital maturity of the business and will receive personal recommendations for further development.
The season is focused on increasing the digital maturity of companies and implementing innovative technologies. Owners of small and medium-sized businesses, experienced entrepreneurs who need technological support, as well as women planning to enter new markets, in particular European ones, are invited to participate. The educational program is built on four key modules: “Thinking of the digital era”, “Technologies of digital transformation”, “Security and digital infrastructure” and “Managing Digital Change”.
According to the results of the training, 14 semi-finalists will receive UAH 300,000 each for business development and digital transformation. In addition, three participants of the National Lecture Hall will be able to attract UAH 100,000 each, provided they pass the digital maturity test and submit a final presentation.
The final event will be the Grand Pitch Day, during which 10 finalists will compete for the main prize — UAH 1.5 million for business scaling and the implementation of modern digital solutions. A separate element of the program will be a psychological block dedicated to the analysis and development of the business psychology of the participants.
Applications can be submitted until September 17, 2025 (11:59 p.m.). Over the two previous seasons, the accelerator attracted more than 8,000 participants, and the total grant fund amounted to UAH 6.5 million. The program is implemented by the network “ Action. Business” jointly with the Ministry of Digital Transformation, the Office of Entrepreneurship and Export Development with the support of UNDP and the Government of Japan as part of the global initiative She’s Next Empowered by Visa.
