Our Idea Lab Web Application
How it works
So, you’ve been burning the midnight oil in the lab, dreaming up the next big thing!
Our Web App is a comprehensive platform that enables you to showcase your Tech innovation to people that open doors for your future unicorn:
Build a prototype
The first step is building a working version—or something close to it. Use tools like Figma , Github, Arduino, Blender, Auto desk etc. Even something simple that shows how it works can grab attention.
Record a 3-minute video pitch
Grab your phone or laptop and record a short video. Keep it real. Talk about who you are, the problem you’re solving, and how your innovation works and what kind of support you’re looking for.
Create a 7-slide pitch deck
You’re basically building a mini storybook of your project to convince someone your idea is worth their attention. Walk us through the problem, your solution, how it works, who it’s for and your future plans.
Create an Account
Once you’re ready, sign up on our platform. This is your digital home where you upload all your project goodies, manage your innovation profile, and track who’s checking out your work.
Upload your resources
Now it’s time to pull everything together: your video, your pitch deck, your prototype links or files. Upload them all to your account, organize them clearly, and boom—you’ve got a full showcase page ready to impress.
Showcase your innovation
After uploading, your project gets a special showcase link. This is your golden ticket. Share it everywhere. It’s like having your own personal booth at a tech exhibition—but online, and way cooler.
