The programme and the challenge
Egytrans, a transport and logistics company, launched Logivators in October 2021 with Startup Factory (pmaestro) and CashCows. Unlike most incubators, it was built for startups that already operate in logistics and transport, and it connected them with industry partners, mentors and experts.
Those founders already had customers and operations. What they needed was a plan and numbers they could defend in front of mentors, the judging panel and, at the end, investors.
How it worked
Partnership
On 26 September 2021 Logivators named BznsBuilder a strategic partner of the programme, alongside Etisalat, WEBKEYZ and Sharik Hub.
Opening keynote
At the opening ceremony in November 2021, Riham Abu Elinin, founder of BznsBuilder, gave the keynote to the accepted startups, experts and mentors.
Training
In the first weeks the 9 startups worked on lean management, design sprints, product development and supply chain. Riham ran the lean-management session and introduced BznsBuilder to the cohort.
Plans and forecasts
Founders then used BznsBuilder to build their business plans and financial forecasts, so every startup presented its numbers in the same structure.
The result
The first edition closed in May 2022 with a ceremony where the top three startups were announced. Over the programme:
