The Quezon City (QC) government has launched applications for Cohort 3 of the Startup QC Professional Category, offering financial grants to accelerate the growth of business startups.
The program will onboard early-stage startups, providing learning and development sessions over three to four months.
Participants will engage with industry experts and mentors to advance their prototypes to market-ready products and services.
The initiative will culminate in a Demo Day, where startups can present their ideas and potentially receive up to P1 million in equity-free grants.
This effort supports Mayor Joy Belmonte’s vision of transforming QC into the startup and innovation capital of the Philippines, backed by various government departments and educational institutions.
