Every innovator deserves their best shot at success.
It’s a competitive world, and it’s not an equal playing field. Not every entrepreneur has the tools and resources they need to set their business idea on a clear path.
Our mission is to give more people with ideas, and those who invest time and money in them, a better shot at success.
VUKA helps people who want to see new ideas succeed.
Whether you have your own ideas, support ambitious entrepreneurs in their quests, or invest in new ideas, VUKA can help you improve your odds of getting great ideas into the world.
People with ideas who want to build a new venture.
You might be an aspiring entrepreneur, or a seasoned expert in science, technology or design, and need to fire up your ‘business brain’. If you’re disciplined and ready to stretch your thinking, VUKA can help you bring clarity to your aspirations.
“What I needed was a system that would take my idea and passion, and help me turn it into a business. VUKA helped me do that. Creating the best possible version of your business idea doesn’t happen by chance - it takes time and discipline.” - VUKA Entrepreneur
Investors who want to support promising new ventures.
VUKA gives you an objective and consistent way of assessing the core business idea and a team’s readiness for investment. It brings clarity to the ‘strategic logic’ behind ideas and spreadsheets, and reduces risk by closing the gaps in a team’s pitch.
“VUKA helps founders create a vision for their business. If they can’t answer the questions on VUKA Works, they shouldn’t be asking for money.” - Investor
People and organizations who support entrepreneurship.

“I often find that investors walk away from a pitch largely because they feel that the individual either doesn’t fully comprehend the nature of their idea, or doesn’t understand the depth of what is required.” - Incubator Advisor
