During the first part of the event, small business trainings will be held to prepare startups for the main competition. During the second part of the tour, the participants will present their ideas to the jury.

The winning projects will get the opportunity to use mentoring services, attract investments, send successful startups abroad, and participate in international events.
It should also be noted that startup tours will create a wide range of opportunities for young people living in the regions to develop, discuss and present business projects, as well as to form startup teams and ideas with the help of mentors.
