BREAKOUT Accelerator Program
Breakout Accelerator offers rural and regional innovators access to resources, infrastructure and networks to accelerate their exposure and entry into international markets.
“The main learning I took away from the Accelerator was most definitely the power of networking and for not being scared to brainstorm your ideas/challenges/opportunities/real situation with trusted professionals. As two individuals who had not had any experience running their own business, and more importantly, no experience in working in a corporate environment, a lot of the business speak was about things we had no prior knowledge of….participation certainly accelerated our business because we actively engaged with mentors who had offered their help and this in turn meant we developed more sophisticated business management tools much quicker than we would have if we had to make these discoveries on our own.”
