What is IPPIN’s Incubator program?

The IIPPIN Incubator program is delivered by CSIRO, Australia’s national science agency and supported by the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and in-country government partners in Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam.

The IPPIN Incubator is an intensive six-week online program focused on refining the product-market fit of plastic waste solutions through a user-problem approach. Selected participants will attend a series of capacity building sessions, complemented by weekly coaching.

The program offers the opportunity to connect with entrepreneurs across the Indo-Pacific region, fostering cross-cultural networking and collaborations.

IPPIN Incubator concludes with an online Showcase, with participants pitching their solutions to a panel of judges for feedback and guidance. Participants will have a chance to progress into the IPPIN Accelerator program to unlock grants and fast track their solutions.
