On November 29, 2025, Astana International
University (AIU) became a center of attraction for entrepreneurial initiative:
the Demo Day - the final event of the 7th incubation program AIU BUSINESS
INNOVATION - took place at the business incubator of the Higher School of
Economics.
Over the course of a month, the program
participants, among whom were both aspiring startuppers and active
entrepreneurs, underwent an intensive course of incubating their projects,
working through every aspect of the business - from generation and verification of idea viability to
building a detailed financial model.
The result of this work was the final pitches
of 6 teams that presented innovative solutions in the spheres of healthcare,
production, and the development of digital platforms. The main outcome of the
Demo Day was not only expert recommendations but also the opening of real
projects for scaling: the finalists received certificates granting them the
right to participate in the competition for grant financing from JSC “QazInnovations”, which is a significant step
towards the realization of business ideas. We wish the graduates further
success in the implementation of projects!
