In the bootcamp we delved into why businesses fail, highlighting the importance of understanding common pitfalls like teamwork and finance issues. This insight is invaluable for anyone entering the entrepreneurship world.
The hands-on experience in starting a startup and learning about the Silicon Valley mindset were standout aspects of the program.

Leandro
Before attending the TechDev Academy Entrepreneurship Bootcamp, my understanding of entrepreneurship was virtually nonexistent. This bootcamp served as my primer, teaching me everything I now know about the subject. What made this experience stand out wasn't just the comprehensive curriculum but the immersive learning opportunities it presented.
This bootcamp equipped me with the practical skills and confidence to start a business more effectively. It has inspired me to delve deeper into coding, with the aim of developing websites. For anyone considering this bootcamp, I can assure you it's an invaluable experience.
John
You learn how to build a company, but you also learn how to think when looking for an idea for a company. Well, starting a business, now that I have a lot more information about it, I can feel more confident in that. They almost taught a mindset that lets you come up with ideas and know how to execute them. Well, I learnt a lot, and I enjoyed it a lot.
