Rethink what's possible in 2022: the world needs more entrepreneurs to lead the way in creating a better future, for everyone.
Whether you have already launched a startup or are still in the idea-phase, now is the time to act. As the global community moves incrementally toward an eventual post-pandemic future, today it remains filled with reshuffled industries and new problems in need of solutions. As we continue into 2022 and beyond, each and every entrepreneur has the opportunity to play a part in helping shape that better future.
That's why we are excited to announce applications are now open for the Perú Virtual 2022 program.
If you could use a structured process and a lifetime of support from Peru's top investors and entrepreneurs to build something meaningful, then apply to the Perú Virtual 2022 Founder Institute today.
