Hi everyone,
I’m currently exploring opportunities to join the Astanahub ecosystem, and I wanted to ask for some clarification from people who have experience with it.
I’m an early-stage founder working on a digital product (SaaS), and I’m considering relocating or at least participating remotely. My main question is: what is the most realistic entry path for an international startup to get involved with Astanahub programs?
Specifically, I’m trying to understand:
Do most foreign founders enter through an application to the accelerator/incubation programs, or is there another recommended starting point?
Is physical presence in Kazakhstan required for most of the support programs, or are hybrid/remote participation options actually common in practice?
For startups that are accepted, how strict are the criteria around traction (MVP, revenue, users), especially for early-stage teams? dordle
I’ve read the official information, but I’m hoping to hear real experiences from founders who have actually gone through the process, especially any unexpected challenges or tips for improving the chances of acceptance.
Thanks in advance to anyone willing to share insights.
