The Farmers2Founders Ideas program is a three-month program designed for primary producers who are wanting to work out whether a business idea is worth pursuing.

The program equips participants to test ideas, build capability and confidence to launch new products and services and can help kick start new business ventures.

The program provides funding, tailored resources and coaching over an intensive 12 weeks and includes weekly workshops, expert sessions, networking opportunities and a graduation event.

Successful applicants will also talk to more than 30 potential customers to help validate the idea, work out a business model and develop a plan to take the next step in the journey as an entrepreneur.

Applications close on 26 February and more information can be found at: https://www.farmers2founders.com/ideas-program
