Bootcamp
The QAI Ventures Bootcamp is a virtual program with optional in-person gatherings, designed to help early-stage teams take their idea from concept to traction. Participants gain structure, mentorship, and expert input to prepare for acceleration or venture building.
How the Bootcamp works
Every two weeks, participants join online sessions focused on core startup topics: from value proposition to investor readiness. Between sessions, the teams work independently, supported by 1:1 office hours and check-ins with the QAI Ventures team and mentors.
Select editions may include an in-person kickoff or demo day for teams to connect face-to-face.
What participants learn during the Bootcamp
How to define and test a value proposition
How to identify and interview early adopters
How to develop a business model and a go-to-market strategy
How to craft a final pitch for investors and stakeholders
The program ends with a demo day - and potentially an opportunity to join the QAI Ventures Accelerator.
This program is designed for:
Students, researchers, or postdocs with ideas for Quantum Tech ventures or a business solution at the intersection of Quantum and AI
Early-stage founders in Quantum, AI, or Advanced Computing
How to get involved as Corporate & Institutional Partner
Corporates and public institutions are invited to take part as challenge providers or co-developers. The Bootcamp offers a structured, low-risk way to explore proof-of-concept opportunities, assess spin-out potential, and collaborate with emerging talent in Quantum AI and Advanced Computing.
If you’re a student, researcher, or aspiring founder: This is your first step. If you’re a corporate or public partner: Bring your challenge, and we’ll help you test and build a solution.
