During the recruitment and qualification period, emerging growth companies in the media sector are recruited internationally. Recruitment begins in February with assistance from our international stakeholder network and supporting organizations that have extensive sector expertise and connections. Our invitation-only committee of leading sector investors conducts a rigorous three-round review including: an online application review, business plan review, and in-person interviews, to qualify a selected group of the most promising companies.

2. Coaching

Key Dates: Bootcamp at Bloomberg Headquarters: August 31 / Coaching Sessions in September and October.

In August, selected companies will attend an intensive entrepreneur Bootcamp session at Blooomberg Headquarters in New York City. Companies have access to Springboard’s professional presentation coaches, and are assigned a team of hand-picked experts to assist them in refining their investor presentations. The coaching process includes: web conference calls, ongoing feedback from the team via in-person meetings, email and phone, and an in-person panel review midway through the program – the “Walk Through” – where each company will deliver their refined presentation. At the end of the coaching process, final company presentations are video- and/or audio-taped for additional promotion and exposure.
