YES. In order to apply to Boğaziçi Entrepreneurship Research and Application Center, you do not need to have taken your project/business idea to a certain stage or to have an MVP. You can contact us as long as you have motivation and ideas.
As a center, we provide you with mentoring support and help you create and implement your business idea.
