What is Sting Test Drive?

Test Drive is a series of workshops for founders with an idea or a startup that are not quite ready to apply for our official startup programs yet. Test Drive runs 1-2 times a year and is usually sector-specific. For example, the past we’ve ran test drives focused on Climate and Energy, DeepTech, HealthTech and Blockchain innovations.
