The accelerator has three successive stages focused on strengthening business models and preparing companies for scale, investment and export. The first edition will support around twenty businesses. Published support includes targeted training, business coaching, peer meetings, ecosystem networking, seed grants of MAD 30,000–50,000 and, for selected growth projects, grants up to MAD 450,000.

The call is for cultural and creative industry businesses based in Morocco and led by young entrepreneurs aged 18–35 who want to accelerate development and scale. The official application form requires organization, legal-registration, team, business-model, market, growth-project and impact information; the programme operates in French and Darija, with English useful for internationalization.
