Each module focuses on **different startup stages** , from idea to revenue stage. We recommend for startups to begin with the first and free module “360 Review of Your Business” to better understand the needs of their business, and thereafter progress to another module. The first module starts on **13 January** and lasts for two weeks. The subsequent modules begin on **27 January** and have various durations between two and six weeks. ![Investment Readiness Program](https://seedstars-com.s3.amazonaws.com/images/news34_2.width-800.jpg) ### **Methodology** Based on original content created in-house from our experience with early-stage startups, the Investment Readiness Program is centered around **interactive webinars** that dig into specific topics and provide real-life examples. The webinars are also a great chance to get to connect with the other program participants and learn about each other’s businesses. Each webinar is followed by a **hands-on assignment** directly linked with a challenge your business is facing. Is your user database stale and in need of new leads? Is your retention strategy adequate for your customer type? These assignments will also help you as a foundation for a conversation with potential investors. Finally, you’ll get a chance to attend group **mentoring sessions** with our growth experts to review your assignment and exchange your learnings with similar businesses from different parts of the world. You will be provided with feedback on your business performance and can refer to these sessions to clear out any questions or doubts. * * * Learn more about the Investment Readiness Program and apply to the modules through this link: * * * NEWS / BLOGPOST GLOBAL SWITZERLAND ECOSYSTEM ENABLER INVESTMENT EVENTS TECH ## More like this [ ![Applications for Online Startup Competition](https://seedstars-com.s3.amazonaws.com/images/Seedstars_Brings_Its_Startup_Competition_Onl.max-320x550.png) GLOBAL • INVESTMENT #### Seedstars Brings Its Startup Competition Online: 2020 Applications Are Open We are happy to announce that Seedstars World Competition 2020/21 will be held exclusively online and the call for startups is open until July 31st.
