The startups that will present at the periodic investor meetings are selected through a three-stage screening process.

Stage 1: Presentations from startups that have submitted online applications are reviewed by the professional team at ŞirketOrtağım. Based on the fundamental criteria established by the network, 10–12 startups are selected following this initial evaluation.

Stage 2: The 10–12 startups deemed suitable for an interview following the initial evaluation are invited to Network Selection Committee meetings and given the opportunity to present to the Selection Committee. As a result of these meetings and interviews, the Selection Committee conducts its first round of screening and identifies 5–6 startups.

Stage 3: The 5–6 startups identified by the Selection Committee are invited to a second meeting. Following the evaluation and decision of the ŞirketOrtağım Board of Directors, 2–3 startups are invited to present at investor meetings.
