From Idea to Impact: Your Startup Journey Starts Here
This playbook was designed just for you — student innovators, problem solvers, creators, and curious minds. Whether you already have an idea or are just exploring how innovation works, this playbook will guide you step-by-step through the startup journey. From discovering real-world problems to pitching your idea with confidence, each chapter will give you practical tools, templates, and activities to help you learn by doing.
You’ll explore:
What innovation really means
How to build a team, define a challenge, and talk to users
How to design solutions, test them, and refine them
How to pitch your idea and plan your next move
Who is it for?
This playbook is for students in the Open Incubator programme — but it’s open to anyone who wants to build ideas that matter.
How to use it:
Move through it chapter by chapter, or jump to the part you need
Do the activities — don’t just read!
Share what you create with your team, mentor, or Open Incubator community
Come back to it anytime you need guidance, clarity, or inspiration
Remember
You don’t need to have all the answers.
You just need to start.
Let’s make ideas real — together.
