NDV is an agnostic fund with an interest in backing businesses that demonstrate high growth potential and offer innovative solutions to an existing problem. If you would like the myqubator™ investment board to start reviewing your startup, please submit a clear business plan, MVP and/or a clear demonstration of the solution you want to bring to the market.

05

How can I apply?

The first step is to submit your business idea via our website. We will then get in touch with you to arrange a meeting. This is followed by an mystudio™ time session, during which we get to know each other better and determine if there is a fit. If everything goes well, we will move forward with the next investment round.

06

What happens after an application is submitted?

The investment board reviews all complete applications. Applicants that do not meet all the requirements are then notified. Those that fulfill the requirements are then rigorously assessed based on key measures as set out by the myqubator™ investment board. Startups that score the highest on this assessment are invited to an introductory session to pitch their ideas in person and answer questions posed by the investment committee.

07

What if my application is declined?

You will receive an automated email advising you of the status of your application within a week from review.

08

Are applications secured by an NDA?

Rest assured all applications are secured by an NDA. Applications that do not make it through are returned to their owners, and all related records related are destroyed.

09

What stage of startups does myqubator™ accept applications from?

myqubator™ accepts applications from startups in various stages, ranging from early-stage ideas to more established ventures. We believe in identifying and nurturing high-potential startups regardless of their stage and where they are from, as long as they align with our vision and mission.

10

Are all startups treated equally at myqubator™? Do they all have to participate in the 18-month program?

While all startups at myqubator™ receive equal consideration and opportunities, our approach may vary based on their specific needs and stage of development. The 18-month program is designed to provide comprehensive support to startups, but it is not mandatory for all. We tailor our engagement to each startup, ensuring they receive the right level of guidance, mentoring, and resources for their unique journey.

11

Do overseas applicants have to move to the UAE to participate in myqubator™?

Yes, in order to be part of our vibrant startup ecosystem, myqubator™ requires overseas applicants to physically relocate their startup operations to our incubator in the UAE. We believe that having a physical presence within our supportive environment provides startups with invaluable benefits including access to mentorship, networking opportunities, and resource support. It also allows for closer collaboration with our team and other startups, fostering a sense of community and driving accelerated growth. We understand that this may require significant logistical adjustments, but we firmly believe in the value of being physically present to fully immerse in the myqubator™ experience and optimize the opportunities provided.

12

Do startups have to give equity to myqubator™ when approved?

Successful applicants after initial investment committee approval will attend the two months mystudio™ time. This is the fourth tier in the screening process, after successful completion of mystudio™, an initial equity is transferred to myqubator™ as pre-agreed. This is an important part of the application process as it allows startups to get a feel for what it's like to work with us and gives us a chance to get to know them better. If, at the end of mystudio™ Time, both parties are happy, we move forward to the next stage of the incubation.

13

What happens during the mystudio™ time?

This is a crucial part of the overall startup investment process at NEWDAY&. Together, myqubator™ and the founder/s will chart the roadmap for the incubating, setting clear KPI’s, milestones, financial requirements, goals for valuations, etc. This is where we make our call on whether the approved project should move forward.

14

How are business ideas valuated at such an early stage

We do not believe in early valuations. To be able to put a fair evaluation on the company, an incubate needs at least one year of revenue and growth experience. To obtain a better understanding of how valuation is determined and how myqubator™ obtains stock in any of the startups, click here.

15

What are the key commitments of startup founders?

By signing up for this incubator, you are committing yourself to developing a product that will meet the needs of customers. You commit to delivering an innovative vision, product, and service. You commit to delivering on the KPIs and the milestones agreed to during mystudio™ time. You commit to sharing acquired knowledge and supporting other incubates. You commit to the overall strategy that is agreed upon and signed off on during your mystudio™ time.

16

Does the myqubator™ management team then take over the management of my business idea?

No. The myqubator™ management team's mission is to provide support and insights and to ensure that timelines are met. They provide their expert advice and expertise, so you are ready for the next stage of funding.

17

Does myqubator™ charge for office space, management, admin support and the services they provide?

No. This is all part of the 8% equity transferred to myqubator™.

18

What are the mentorship areas of specialization at myqubator™?

Since we are adopting an agnostic approach to identifying incubates, we take it upon ourselves to match the incubate with the best possible access to industry leaders for mentorship, no matter the startup’s business concept.

19

Why an 18-month incubation? Is that flexible?

The 18-month is designed to allow enough time to build the solution and to allow the start-up a 12-month financial cycle to support better valuation for the next series.

20

How long before we sit with VCs?

We maintain a consistent flow of information with VCs keeping them abreast of developments taking place with our incubates, so they are kept motivated and interested. We meet with VCs when it is determined that the startup is ready to do so.

21

What if we need more money than what fund offers?

If you require more funding after your initial investment from fund, we will work with you to tap into our networks and help raise follow-on rounds from other investors.

22

How does myqubator™ support the marketing of startups?

The myqubator™ team is in contact with industry experts, venture capitalists, family offices, and more to spread the word about the great potential of our incubates.
