Programa Trilhar gathers over 30 participants and still has spots in Ponta Grossa

The Trilha program began a new stage on Wednesday (10), at Ponta Grossa, bringing together 33 participants at Hub Station. The free initiative of the Innovation and Development Agency is aimed at empowering people interested in turning ideas into startups and new businesses. Even with the activities already started, the registrations remain open.

The first meeting marked the beginning of the Expresso Startup, the first front of the program. The program includes seven meetings until October, with activities aimed at guiding participants from the identification of a problem or opportunity to the presentation of a business proposal.

During the journey, topics such as public definition, value proposition, business model, prototyping, market validation and construction of the so-called pitch, presentation used by entrepreneurs to explain their projects objectively, will be addressed.

Training integrates actions of the Valley of the Rails

The Trilha program is part of the actions of the Valley of the Rails, Ponta Grossa innovation ecosystem. The proposal is to bring entrepreneurs closer to knowledge, tools and connections that can contribute to transform projects and ideas into businesses with growth potential.

According to the president of the Agency for Innovation and Development, Tônia Mansani, the participation of more than 30 people in this stage demonstrates the existing interest in the city for the creation and development of new businesses.

“Starting a new stage of the Trilha with more than 30 participants shows that we have people willing to turn ideas into business and seek knowledge to make it happen. The Agency enters precisely to offer this path, bringing entrepreneurs closer to the tools, connections and opportunities that already exist in our ecosystem,” he says.

Second stage will be focused on business with MVP

After the completion of the Express Startup, the program will have the Startup Platform, a step aimed at entrepreneurs who already have an MVP — Minimum Viable Product — in operation.

There will be three meetings scheduled for October and November. At this stage, the programming should work on issues related to business structuring, access to promotion mechanisms, partnership formation, growth and market positioning.

At the end of the whole journey, participants will receive a 50-hour certification, divided between 30 hours of face-to-face activities and another 20 hours destined to the development of their own projects.
