NINETEEN teams composed of tech startups and business students in Cebu gathered at the Azia Suites for the LaunchPad Mentoring Program.

The whole-day event is aimed at helping applicants create innovative ideas for software product business that respond to the needs of a market segment or create solutions to problems in the community.

By the end of the event, five teams with the most viable business model will be selected to undergo the six-month LaunchPad Mentoring Program that starts on September 28, Spring.ph founder Joey Gurango said.

LaunchPad Mentoring Program aims to help tech startups teams to “cross the threshold between software product idea and starting a software product business.”
